Aviatrix Cloud Network Platform Helps HEINEKEN Become World�s Best-Connected Brewer

SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Aviatrix, the cloud network platform, today announced that HEINEKEN, the world’s most international brewer, and the leading developer and marketer of premium beer and cider brands, has deployed Aviatrix to enable their multi-cloud digital transformation in becoming the world’s best-connected brewer.

HEINEKEN’s cloud network infrastructure requirements need deployment within minutes, instead of days or weeks. To accelerate their digital transformation, HEINEKEN leverages cloud-based services that generate insights from data. Working with Aviatrix, HEINEKEN’s Connectivity Team was able to build a platform based on standardized blueprints, providing the required speed and agility. As a result, the team can now maintain the necessary supportability without taking away freedom, speed, and agility from the Functional Development Teams.

“Working closely with the Aviatrix team has helped us to be better globally connected with our customers and consumers, which is of strategic importance to our brands. Using the Aviatrix multi-cloud network platform has enabled us to be cloud agnostic, allowing us to use best of breed capabilities of the different public cloud providers and connect users, applications and data in a secure cloud native way,” said Edwin Venhuizen, Product Owner Connectivity at HEINEKEN.

With Aviatrix, HEINEKEN can now deploy network infrastructure and security in minutes. Moving forward, HEINEKEN will further utilize the Aviatrix cloud network platform for full automation and self-service.

“Our partnership with HEINEKEN further validates that regardless of your business, transformation to multi-cloud is becoming essential for every organization. Enterprises expect their network to deliver cloud simplicity and agility combined with enterprise class operations and security. That’s precisely what we’re providing to HEINEKEN with our cloud network platform, helping this great brand become the best-connected brewer in the world,” stated Steve Mullaney, Aviatrix CEO.
