Tags:
scalability

Overview Faced with ongoing server growth and rising IT costs, Fortis Health knew it was time to forge a new direction for its IT environment. Several options were possible, but a rapid economic justification (i.e., TCO study) combined with a 'gut feel' supported a scale-up approach based on multiple Intel powered Unisys ES7000 servers running Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server. Used for heterogeneous consolidation and supporting key underwriting and business intelligence systems, the new platform will bring numerous cost-saving, performance and systems management improvements.
