Virtualization @ Healthcare

A large #U.S #healthcare brand was in an urgent need to upgrade their ageing and crumbling #infrastructure. The server was almost dying when they decided to upgrade and the work was to be done within a month.

Client

A large #US #healthcare brand.

Challenge:

The client was in an urgent need to upgrade the whole infrastructure at their Japan branch in #Tokyo. The existing infrastructure was more than 5 years and it had capacity and speed issues. The U.S headquarter was looking for a local company to implement a new infrastructure specifically in a #virtual #environment #architecture.

Solution:

TopTech installed #VMware #server including acquisition of new hardware and software.

• Virtualization: #VMware #vSphere 4.0

• Server O/S: #Windows #Server 2008 #R2

• Backup software: #BackupExec 10

• Router and #switches: Cisco ASA firewall, Cisco Catalyst 3750 PoE #Switches

Benefits:

• Improved IT environment from #Workgroup to AD #domain

• Data #security by #RAID5 disks and regular backup process by HP auto tape loader

• More virtual servers on less hardware

• The successful installation of the new server and environment brought TopTech the #IT #outsourcing contract with the customer for desktop support, local PC and server maintenance
