By: via Business Wire

Industry-leading automation platform brings cost savings and efficiency to meet the needs of Ensono’s customers

Red Hat, the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced that Ensono, a leading technology advisor and managed service provider, is using Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform to spearhead its automation journey, unifying IT management and fostering a dynamic community of practice. This strategic adoption empowers Ensono to prioritize innovation, optimize its IT environment, accelerate deployment velocity and enhance operational consistency for its customers.

Building on their usage of upstream projects to deliver custom configurations for major global brands, Ensono recognized the need for a next-generation automation platform to support continued growth and maintain exceptional customer service. They sought a solution capable of effectively managing and scaling automation across heterogeneous environments, from development to production, with enhanced reliability and optimized resource utilization to meet the demands of its expanding business.

Driving major impact through automation with 210,000 hours saved

In just one year, Ensono has achieved remarkable results using Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, showcasing its impact in accelerating scale, speed and efficiency across their operations. Ansible Automation Platform played a critical role in the development of Ensono’s Envision automation framework, which integrates seamlessly with ServiceNow to deliver end-to-end automation. This powerful combination is helping Ensono drive greater consistency, faster execution and improved service delivery for its customers:

  • Massive scale: Over 30,000 IT assets and resources deployed, managing complex environments with ease.
  • High velocity: 40 million tasks executed and 225,000 jobs run, showcasing the platform's ability to handle demanding workloads.
  • Significant time savings: More than 210,000 hours saved by automating repetitive and manual tasks, freeing up valuable IT resources for strategic initiatives.
  • Enhanced operational intelligence: Automation analytics provided deeper visibility into automation performance, enabling proactive identification and resolution of potential issues. This data-driven approach informed strategic prioritization of future automation projects based on tangible time and cost efficiencies.
  • Real-time responsiveness: Event-Driven Ansible enabled a more unified and responsive IT management approach, allowing Ensono to swiftly resolve disruptions and enhance application performance and availability—while also lowering the cost to deliver high-quality services through increased automation and efficiency.
  • Consistent and reliable automation: Red Hat Ansible Certified Content Collections served as instrumental building blocks, enabling high-quality and consistent automation across diverse teams and complex environments, including IBM Z systems. This accelerated time-to-value and enabled repeatable success.

An automation framework for real use cases

Demonstrating a continued commitment to innovation, Red Hat Consulting collaborated with Ensono to architect, refine and implement a community of practice framework. This strategic initiative aims to promote efficient processes and automation best practices across Ensono’s teams. The community fosters enhanced knowledge exchange and significantly boosts efficiency by establishing shared methodologies, empowering team members with varied expertise to contribute perspectives to problem-solving. The community also reflects Ensono’s core value of collaboration—creating space for associates to stay connected, share insights and continuously learn from one another.

Looking ahead, Ensono intends to further cultivate its community of practice and explore the transformative potential of Red Hat Ansible Lightspeed. By harnessing its generative AI (gen AI) capabilities, Ensono aims to democratize automation, making it more accessible to a wider range of users and codifying best practices with high-quality content — accelerating adoption, improving consistency and enabling innovation across teams. As a purpose-built AI service trained on Ansible data, Ansible Lightspeed has the potential to significantly enhance Ensono’s adoption of new use cases, more seamlessly integrating with its existing Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform workflows.
