Case Study
13th May 2020
Background
Paddy Power Betfair (PPB) plc is an international sports betting and gaming operator, with a market-leading presence in the UK, Ireland, Australia and the USA. Operating five sports betting and gaming brands (Paddy Power, Betfair, Sportsbet, FanDuel and TVG), PPB is a FTSE 100 enterprise with five million customers and employing some 7000 people in sixteen locations across the globe.
From an IT operational perspective, Paddy Power Betfair (PPB) has traders based in Dublin, Melbourne and California using its core line of business applications. The systems that they are currently using for analytics and trading, are hosted on a centralised ageing, on-prem VDI solution.
What PPB’s requirements were
Essentially, Paddy Power Betfair was struggling with both the performance and reliability of its existing VDI platform, notably with general speed of access and the ability to scale it in and out. Such was its need to have an efficient platform upon which it could depend on moving forward, PPB decided to look at alternative solutions.
HTG’s engagement with PPB arose from one of Microsoft’s exclusive, targeted, early adopter initiatives set up to enable large enterprises onboard quickly and more easily to new technologies; in this instance, Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD). Through Microsoft’s funding, this initiative is free for the duration of the trial period, so effectively, Microsoft is helping HTG to help its customers and prospects on their journey to deploying a WVD environment, at scale. HTG is therefore an active participant in and advocate of, this initiative.
WVD is a comprehensive desktop and application virtualisation service running on the cloud, in this instance Azure. Encompassing built-in security and compliance, it enables enterprises to rapidly deploy and scale Windows desktops and applications at any location, globally. Enterprises using WVD can not only give their employees access to those virtualised applications and remote desktops, but have the benefit of and ability to, provide multi-session, Windows 10 experiences.
Despite having a mature Azure services presence, previous attempts to build a cloud based VDI solution was complex and therefore did not meet the requirements of a dynamic and fast-paced enterprise such as PPB.
What HTG delivered
To demonstrate the capability and power of WVD, HTG used its knowledge of and expertise in Azure and WVD to quickly deploy a Proof of Concept (PoC) environment for PPB. All their core applications were installed within the environment to enable its traders to test and compare against their existing platform. The proof of concept was a resounding success with all traders reporting that WVD was far quicker and easier to use than that its incumbent solution. PPB is now operating successfully in its live production environment.
At a high level, HTG deployed for PPB two different host pools (a WVD term for collection of Virtual Machines); one set for its task workers (those that typically use MS Office apps), and the other set for its traders (essentially who have very unique requirements, namely the ability to span 6x 4K screens in order to run all of their apps at once). Using its experience in Desktop as a Service (DaaS) and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), HTG effectively scaled the WVD instances to ensure PPB would receive best value.
As part of the Proof of Concept, HTG deployed FSLogix profile containers using its industry leading knowledge of the product, hosting profiles on Azure NetApp Files with the option to migrate to Azure Files with AD Integration, in the future.
To ensure the smooth running of this modern workspace solution, HTG provided training on WVD to PPB’s internal support teams and showed how best to manage it going forward. This was combined with the provision of supporting design documentation.
Commenting on HTG’s involvement, Graham Wight, CEO at HTG said: “We are delighted to be associated with a FTSE 100 enterprise in helping them move to a modern workspace incorporating Windows Virtual Desktop. This is testament to the credibility and professionalism of HTG as a leading IT consultancy.”

Dean Lawrence, HTG’s Principal Consultant continued, “It’s been really satisfying for HTG to work with PPB in deploying a live Windows Virtual Desktop production environment. PPB adds to our growing list of WVD customers and by HTG working shoulder to shoulder with Microsoft’s Global Black Belts on such projects, is ensuring they’re scoped correctly to achieve an efficient solution.”

Betfair were actually one of the first bookmakers to really embrace mobile betting. They are the bookmaker to embrace more features than most to be honest, but their decision to make a Betfair betting app over a decade ago is one that really ignited the industry.
They now boast an absolutely stunning betting app and what’s even more impress is that you can access both their sports book and their betting exchange from a mobile device. We have outlined below to download the Betfair App on your mobile device.
Step by step guide
- The first thing you are going to need is a Betfair betting account. If you’re on your PC and looking to download it then you can register first on the desktop site by following this link. If you are on your mobile already, then click this link to be taken to the mobile registration page.
- iPhone users can simply click the button below to be taken to download page for the Betfair app. It works the same as downloading any other App like you would from the app store.
- Android users will need to click the Android button below. This will be a direct link to download the app directly as betting Apps are not permitted in the Android App Store at the minute.
- Once the app has been downloaded on any device, simply log into your account using the details that you entered after clicking the link in step 1.
Features of the Betfair App
There are a multitude of features available on the Betfair mobile app. At a glance, these include:
- Place, back and lay bets on the go
- Bet in-play and cash out
- Live scores and updates available
- Manage your account history
The Betfair app offers everything you need to bet on the move, keep tabs with how your selections are doing, cash out where required and also check your betting history.
Using the fully secure app you can bet through Betfair’s sportsbook or back, lay and trade via the exchange; and all with just a few swipes of the screen.
You can bet in-play too, so if you are out and about but still want to place a few bets then you can. This is a good way to take advantage of the best possible odds, as prices fluctuate during a match or race.
Platforms
The Betfair mobile app is available across the board, and can easily be downloaded for iPhone, iPad and Android devices.
Do note though that the app is only supported by devices with Android 2.1 or higher, so do check your specs first.
Downloading is easy: simply head to the relevant store (Google Play for Android, the App Store for iPhone/iPad) and follow the on-screen instructions. Alternatively, head to www.betfair.com on your mobile browser and you will see a link to the app there.
Promotions & Bonuses
New accounts at Betfair are going to be able to claim up to £100 in free bets. Just take note of the terms and condition posted below to see how it’s done.
So once you’ve downloaded the app, register an account and deposit your initial £10. Then you’ll need to place a bet on odds greater than 1/2 (1.50).
The Verdict
Once you’ve downloaded the Betfair mobile app to your chosen device, you will be left wondering how you managed without it for so long.
It’s so simple to use, with a user friendly navigation and layout that will have you backing your teams and/or horses in seconds.
You can watch them come home using the live data feed which updates by the second, and if any of your selections are letting you down then you can always cash out on the spot! This is all done from a single screen too, so no need to switch between pages.

There’s a bookmark feature too, which enables you to navigate back to your most used markets with ease: not many betting apps offer this.
If you want to keep an eye on things then the ‘my bets’ section offers all the information you need about your live bets, your betting history, winnings and deposits etc.
All things considered, the Betfair app is a fantastic way to do your betting. It’s not necessarily as visually appealing as some, but it more than makes up for that in terms of its features and benefits.
Betfair Desktop App Download
If you have a Betfair account, or plan to sign up for one, then downloading the app is a must.
