USDM successfully automated provisioning for the mid-sized therapeutics company, achieving efficiency, cost savings, and scalability.
A mid-sized therapeutics company needed an automated provisioning process for AWS Workspaces and virtual servers, triggered through ServiceNow user requests. Their internal capabilities lacked streamlined auto-provisioning, prompting them to seek expertise from USDM, which provided high-level ServiceNow integration skills.
Key Project Requirements:
- REST integration between AWS Cloud and ServiceNow with secure transactions (OAuth).
- Automation of provisioning processes to improve efficiency.
- Error Handling & Monitoring to track and resolve issues dynamically.
USDM’s Approach & Solution
USDM delivered a bi-directional REST integration between AWS and ServiceNow, allowing for secure, automated transactions. Key implementation steps included:
- Building a Secure Integration:
- Ensured OAuth-based secure transactions between AWS and ServiceNow.
- Established data exchange protocols for provisioning requests.
- Automating Provisioning Requests:
- ServiceNow now automatically triggers AWS provisioning upon user request.
- Virtual servers and Workspaces are provisioned without manual intervention.
- Error Tracking and Monitoring:
- Implemented automated error detection and logging.
- Enabled real-time issue resolution, reducing downtime.
Project Challenges
- Security Concerns: Ensuring secure transactions between AWS and ServiceNow was a priority.
- Complexity of Integration: Establishing a bi-directional connection between the two platforms required expertise in both AWS and ServiceNow.
- Change Management: Adapting internal workflows to new automation processes required staff training.
Results & Business Impact
- 20% ROI: Achieved due to reduced manual intervention and automation.
- Improved Workflow Efficiency: Provisioning tickets are now processed seamlessly, reducing turnaround time.
- Scalability: The solution enables future growth without additional manual provisioning.
Conclusion & Key Takeaways
