Cloud software corporation Okestro announced on the 9th that it has been selected as the preferred negotiator for a project worth 5.4 billion won for the 'Integrated Operations Management Environment Maintenance of the National Information Resource Management Agency.'
The purpose of this project is to stably operate the next-generation integrated operations management system 'nTOPS 3.0' of the National Information Resource Management Agency and to enhance the cloud-based operating system. nTOPS 3.0 is a newly built platform that completely overhauls the existing system that has been in operation since 2005, currently integrating and managing the information resources of 52 central administrative agencies and serving as the foundation for managing key national systems.
Okestro designed and built nTOPS 3.0 through its 2024 electronic government cloud platform fourth construction project. It improved the structural limitations of the existing legacy-based IT service management (ITSM) system and integrated the functions that were distributed among four centers in Daejeon, Gwangju, Daegu, and Gongju into a single platform. The key aspect was implementing an integrated operating system optimized for the cloud by linking the service portal with ITSM and RPMS.
On the first day of service transition to nTOPS 3.0 in June, all 114 process change requests received through the low-code method were processed on the same day. This reduced the application period, which previously took more than two weeks, to within a day, proving the stability and effectiveness of the initial operation on site beyond just simple system construction.
Thanks to these achievements, Okestro was also selected as the preferred negotiator for the operations maintenance project following the nTOPS 3.0 construction. It aims to focus on early stabilization of nTOPS 3.0 and securing operational efficiency as key tasks, with plans to enhance services and concentrate on the redundancy system based on the disaster recovery activity plan (BCP). The scope of the project also includes the construction of a redundancy system between the Daejeon and Gongju centers, implementing the redundancy system based on Okestro's multi-cloud management technology, and conducting BCP scenario-based drills at the Gongju center.
Kim Beom-jae, the representative of Okestro, said, "Based on the technological capabilities and actual operational experience that Okestro possesses, we will stably operate the next-generation ITSM nTOPS 3.0 of the National Information Resource Management Agency," and noted, "Through this project, we will present a digital innovation model that can be applied to other public institutions and private cloud data centers."
