Jens Koegler Healthcare ,

The infrastructure and services from VMware and Cloud HM have empowered us to be on the cutting edge of health security so that we can be the health protection agency that the people can trust.

Following its newfound recognition from battling COVID-19, the Department of Disease Control (DDC) in Thailand faced difficulties in spinning up new resources in its on-premises data center to cope with increased website traffic and cyberattacks. The organization migrated to the Cloud HM Sovereign Cloud built on VMware Cloud technologies which enables the DDC to be scalable and flexible while ensuring the privacy and sovereignty of national data. The DDC website is now continuously accessible to visitors, even during system maintenance. With Cloud HM managing the security, the number of cyberattacks also went down significantly. The DDC is planning to move its open data application to the sovereign cloud for improved stability.
