Project Challenges

"To focus on its core mission of delivering exceptional food services to customers, Wesang needed to ensure its infrastructure operated reliably without diverting resources from business growth. With increased traffic and high user expectations, maintaining consistent system performance and security was essential. Recognizing the benefits of outsourcing, Wesang sought a team of skilled IT professionals to handle proactive management and ensure their systems remained secure, stable, and efficient—without the complexity of hiring and training an in-house team. 

Outlined below are the specific challenges that led Wesang to seek an experienced IT team for infrastructure management:

• Operational Reliability and Consistency: To provide seamless delivery services, Wesang required consistent server and cloud performance with minimal disruptions.
• Proactive System Maintenance: With high demand, Wesang needed regular maintenance to address potential system issues early, minimizing the risk of downtime.
