New Delhi [India], March 15 (ANI/NewsVoir): Dr Lal PathLabs Limited, one of India's leading pathology diagnostic providers with more than 250 laboratories and 4500 sample collection points, has appointed Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), the world's largest IT infrastructure services provider, to manage its IT infrastructure stack, including both the on-premises IT environment and cloud infrastructure across multiple hyperscaler cloud service providers.

Post onboarding, Kyndryl has been instrumental in managing the multiple cloud platforms that play a key role in Dr Lal PathLabs' digital transformation initiatives to drive business growth. Kyndryl provides a single pane view of server utilization, service requests, ticketing lifecycle, incident analysis, and also recommends proactive remediation. Offering a unified view of their infrastructure utilization on-premises and across multiple public cloud environments has improved service availability and helped Dr Lal Pathlabs reduce IT incidents by a substantial margin. Kyndryl has also integrated compliance checks such as inventory management, patching, and security health, which have helped achieve continuous compliance within Dr Lal PathLabs' cloud environment and security posture.

Kyndryl's multi-cloud management solution leverages AI-based, cloud-hosted models to provide real-time metrics, events, logs, and traces related to reliability, performance and availability. The service availability uptime enabled Dr Lal PathLabs to focus on enhancing customer satisfaction and reducing call center workload spikes by a double-digit percentage.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr Lal PathLabs relied on Kyndryl's technology expertise to make critical changes in its cloud infrastructure on an almost daily basis to fulfill modifications as required by policymakers to aid efforts in controlling the spread.

Kyndryl-managed IT infrastructure hosts Dr Lal PathLabs' entire suite of enterprise applications, digital properties and other utility tools.

Kyndryl's multi-cloud management expertise helps Dr Lal PathLabs handle change management when adapting to sudden market and regulatory requirements, yet allows them the flexibility to design and provide a premium service experience tailored for every customer," said Lingraju Sawkar, President, Kyndryl India.
