Converge ICT works with VMware

Leveraging on a whole suite of VMware Cloud solutions, Converge created a new home for its core system to run on.

Converge ICT Solutions Inc., a broadband service provider in the Philippines, announced that it surpassed its original target of achieving 55 percent household coverage nationwide by 2025, almost two years ahead of schedule.

An annual quality of digital wellbeing study by Surfshark ranked the Philippines 104th out of 121 countries surveyed for internet affordability.[1] With more than 670,000 kilometers of pure fiber assets, Converge has now attained a remarkable 62 percent nationwide coverage as of the second quarter of 2023, providing affordable high-speed broadband internet to unserved and under-served Filipinos across the nation. It is on track to further expand its reach across the Philippines to empower more communities and businesses across the nation.

Vital to this achievement is its collaboration with VMware, the cloud infrastructure of choice of Converge to run and deploy its ever-growing suite of applications. Moreover, with a massive business transformation underway, Converge leans on VMware to modernize its backend IT infrastructure.

Leveraging on a whole suite of VMware Cloud solutions, Converge created a new home for its core system to run on. This VMware-based IT infrastructure blending global best practices and solutions with local know-how helped Converge to simplify, scale, and more secure their IT operations supporting its continued expansion in the country.

We aim to continue providing the best solutions and support to our customers to unlock efficiency, agility, and reliability gains for their IT infrastructure,” said Walter So, Country Manager, VMware Philippines.
