How Nxtra delivered unmatched scalability and compliance for a leading BFSI player

Overview

A leading BFSI player in India faced critical challenges in maintaining operational reliability and adhering to regulatory compliance standards. With infrastructure outages halting critical transactions and limited capabilities for disaster recovery (DR) and near-DR sites, the organization sought a resilient, scalable, and compliant solution. Nxtra by Airtel delivered a cutting-edge colocation solution that transformed the BFSI player's digital infrastructure and ensured uninterrupted operations.

The Challenge

The BFSI organization faced several pressing challenges:

• In-house captive infrastructure failed to meet uptime and reliability demands, causing frequent outages.
• Compliance with regulatory frameworks like RBI, IRDA, and SEBI was increasingly difficult.
• Building disaster recovery (DR) and near-DR sites for risk mitigation was both resource-intensive and complex.
• Infrastructure resilience was inadequate, leading to frequent transaction halts, affecting end-user trust and business continuity.

The Solution

Nxtra addressed the BFSI player’s needs with a comprehensive colocation solution designed to deliver high performance, compliance, and scalability:
