Globe Telecom, through Cascadeo—its official cloud company—has announced a Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) with Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud offering.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced today that Jollibee Foods Corporation (the Jollibee Group), one of the world’s largest food companies with 17 brands and over 5,800 outlets in 34 countries, has selected AWS as its preferred cloud provider globally. The Jollibee Group is migrating its IT infrastructure from its data centers in the Philippines, parts of Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), and North America to AWS. The migration makes the Jollibee Group more agile, enabling the company to respond to changes in consumer behavior more quickly, like those brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic which drove a significant rise in delivery orders. Leveraging the breadth and depth of AWS capabilities, including analytics and database services, the Jollibee Group is also becoming a data-driven enterprise to gain greater visibility into its sales data and supply chain operations. To accelerate the move to cloud, the Jollibee Group’s global headquarters in the Philippines is leading the charge in the migration to AWS. The company worked with AWS Partner, DXC Technology in the Philippines, to decommission its on-premises data centers and migrate its mission-critical SAP workloads to AWS in less than 24 hours. So far, this migration has helped the group reduce costs, streamline IT management, and innovate new services.
