Rancher Federal is using the Combine Platform as a sandbox environment to better meet the needs of our classified customers on Platform One. Combine’s dashboard allows developers to quickly know when their code will not operate in the classified environment.
• Citrix approached Sequoia to use Combine to migrate network software appliance solutions.
• Citrix then leveraged Combine during a proposal to demonstrate C2S competency and compatibility, resulting in the award of a $64 million contract to Citrix. Citrix directly attributes use of Combine as a key factor in the award.
• Digital Globe used Sequoia Combine as a force multiplier as they delivered software to the NGA over the life of a 3-year contract.
• Combine allowed Digital Globe to “build low & deliver high” which maximized labor cost savings for both Digital Globe and NGA by utilizing 25 uncleared & only 5 cleared resources, opposed to 30 fully cleared resources.
• The average difference in salary for a cleared & uncleared resource is 20%, which resulted in significant cost savings for Digital Globe.
“We attempted to build C2S support into our products by engineering the support with the help of design specifications and then deploying within live C2S environments however, after realizing that our lack of C2S familiarity was resulting in products with C2S connection issues, we felt that our issues were causing brand damage with our long standing customers In a bid to regain their trust we looked for approved C2S testing environments that would allow us to ensure that our products worked correctly on the first try.
Palo Alto Networks (then Evident IO) approached Sequoia with a challenge. Their cloud optimization SaaS tool which used AWS APIs across multiple accounts, required integration with the Government's proprietary authentication/authorization API CAP. They formed a 6-person Tiger Team and integrated their solution into Combine over a course of 5 months, collaborating with Sequoia staff to confirm functionality. Using Combine's dashboard, Palo Alto was able to identify errors in their code which would prevent the solution from working in the classified cloud.
• CloudBees was under contract with InQTel to migrate their RedHat OpenShift cluster-based CI/CD solution to C2S.
• CloudBees was working with another vendor for cloud emulation but was not getting sufficient support from that vendor and their schedule started to slip.
• CloudBees approached Sequoia with 30 days remaining to deliver their migration. The Sequoia team leveraged their relationship with RedHat to reproduce the OpenShift environment inside Combine to specification and supported CloudBees as they migrated their solution into Combine.
Our strength is in our employees and Sequoia is totally committed to providing the best possible culture and environment where our employees can grow personally and professionally into the technical leaders of tomorrow.
