Swisscom

Switzerland's leading telecoms company and one of its leading IT companies. Headquartered in Ittigen near Berne. Subsidiary Fastweb in Italy. 20,000+ employees; CHF 11.7bn sales. Founded 1852.

Challenge

Needed reliable, fast-acting support for two mission-critical platforms. Previous GlassFish setup lacked supported version.

 

Solution

Migrated from GlassFish in 2015 to Payara Enterprise. 24×7 support included. Customer-only patched builds via Maven repository.

 

Result

Quick fix delivery (customer-only builds). Support response described as ‘fast and helpful’. Fixes shortening time to test by 2 months.

 

Payara Platform is super stable and patches to issues are delivered faster than we notice them! For me, as developer, it is important to have access to a Nexus server where I can automatically download the latest releases.
