With operations all across Canada and many customers and strategic partnerships, FortisOntario, electrical company, issues an average of 50,000 electronic invoices every month, all of these managed by an external provider. In order to carry the process internally, the company needed to optimize their billing system.

As part of the process, FortisOntario has chosen AWS and Linke to make this posible and to integrate the system with the self-service portal that was designed for their customers. During the project, the company adopted Linke AWS connector, an SAP on AWS cloud solution created by Linke's I+D department. Now, FortisOntario can manage, store and retrieve all their invoices on Amazon S3 in a more accesible way and reducing their annual costs around 40%.

For this year's edition, experts from AWS and partners participated with highlighted sessions and tracks in order to talk about cloud trends and how to take advantage of all the benefits it brings. 

And at Linke we had the pleasure of being part of this event with an outstanding session and our virtual booth, in which we discussed the best migration strategies and success stories. Did you missed it? Keep reading to  know all about the AWS Online Summit 2020.

If we are looking for a secure and flexible environment, capable of adapting to business needs and seasonal peaks, a cloud infrastructure is seen as the best option. There are many benefits to migrating workloads and applications to the cloud, including effectiveness, security, accessibility and performance improvements.

At Linke we know the importance of SAP workloads for many companies and the importance of an agile and seamless management of data in an integrated platform. For that reason, we were pleased to join the AWS Virtual Days, an event about migration both cloud to cloud and from physical centres to cloud.

When you deploy SAP on AWS, you need to manage the accounts that gain access to the cloud. Cloud administrators need to come up with a way to organise the available resources and determine who has access to which resources. Then, provide levels of permissions for viewing and manipulating data.

At Linke we will be hosting a new webinar in partnership with SAP dedicated to cybersecurity and system administration based on SAP systems running in AWS cloud. Let's take a look at the main topics to be discussed. Also, do not forget to register, you still have time. 

The economic situation experienced as a result of the evolution of COVID-19 has generated an impact on how the market works and, of course, of its priorities. Today, businesses are reinforcing their digital transformation process to evolve at a time when innovation is essential to provide an optimized service and minimize security risks but also costs, as far as possible.

Digital transformation was already very important before the beginning of this 2020, but it has taken on special relevance during this context with many companies implementing home office and many digital tools in order to keep connected. Technology has been a fundamental part of this process.
