Solution

IP6net where chosen as the right company to assist with the migration of the application into a Enterprise infrastructure. The chosen solution was to move the application to a dedicated webserver and database server within our Flex Cloud infrastructure giving realtime replication of the virtual machines using VMware fault tolerance to a geographically disparate data centre and a fully managed firewall, along with realtime monitoring of core processes using Nagios and Microsoft Operations Manager.

"We chose IP6net as the right partner for this solution, they demonstrated excellent understanding of our current problems and their Flex Cloud offered the perfect solution for our always on application. We are comfortable that we can continue to effectively operate our business in the event of a primary location disaster and the application monitoring IP6net provide enable us to resolve issues before they become business impacting"
