From 7 Days to Just Hours: How IT-Conductor Revolutionized SAP System Refresh | CEO Interview

In this revealing interview, Linh Nguyen, CEO and Co-founder of IT-Conductor, shares the untold founding story of how a consulting engagement with Sun Microsystems managing AT&T's infrastructure became the catalyst for a revolutionary IT automation platform. From bootstrapping against billion-dollar competitors to creating a 100% global remote workforce model before it was mainstream, Linh offers unprecedented insights into building a cloud-native solution that reduces system refresh times from weeks to hours and saves Fortune 5000 companies millions per hour in downtime costs. Learn how IT-Conductor delivers enterprise-grade automation through a single platform that replaces multiple legacy tools, how they've maintained 99.99% uptime while developing innovative solutions for clients like Home Depot and Moderna, and why their approach to change management and security creates resilient systems that minimize catastrophic failures before they occur. Essential viewing for IT Directors, CIOs, and SAP administrators looking to optimize mission-critical systems and automate complex workflows while reducing costs and improving performance. Takeaways IT-Conductor was born from a real-world problem: Sun Microsystems couldn't track thousands of servers supporting AT&T's voting services. The platform can reduce system refresh processes from 7 days to just hours, saving Fortune 5000 companies $3-4 million per hour in downtime IT-Conductor pioneered the 100% global remote work model in 2014, years before COVID made it mainstream. Their "agentless" approach means zero on-site installation, dramatically reducing implementation time. One platform replaces multiple enterprise tools, allowing customers to eliminate redundant systems. The company uses a unique "top-down" approach to monitoring that correlates events across infrastructure, reducing alert noise by up to 99% Automated change management prevented outages similar to the 2023 CrowdStrike incident that crippled airlines. IT-Conductor's Java-based architecture allows "changing wheels on a moving train" with only 2 hours of planned downtime annually. The platform enables global expertise sharing, allowing specialists from anywhere to provide services through the platform.
