Your contribution to TenneT
In a world of energy transition and advanced cloud computing, talking about it isn't enough. At TenneT, we're actually making it happen!
TenneT is at the start of a journey to the public cloud. We are introducing new technology and will start moving applications from their current location in our IT systems to the Public Cloud (Microsoft Azure). At the same time, modern, cloud native solutions based on public cloud technologies are key to support TenneT’s ambitions and responsibilities in the energy transition. For this cloud journey we’ve engaged into a partnership with Capgemini, acting as Managed Cloud Provider (MCP) and supporting TenneT to build, design and maintain the Public Cloud. Our collaboration with MCP is designed to significantly enhance our IT infrastructure's agility and resilience, positioning us at the vanguard of technological innovation and security advancements.
TenneT is running the MCP: Go cloud Program to establish the public cloud and execute migrations. In parallel, to ensure the successful ongoing support and provision of the MCP service to the TenneT organization, we are building a robust platform-organization. This team will be the driving force behind the Cloud Journey at TenneT for the coming years, leading the charge in enhancing efficiency and agility across our operations. By harnessing the expertise of the MCP, we're looking to redefine the traditional IT delivery models, offering resources to end-users with unprecedented speed and advancing the resilience of our IT infrastructure with the latest in security and technology.
