Lithuanian Police Speed Up Fingerprint Recognition With Servers Based on Intel Itanium 2 Processors
Overview Analysing fingerprint evidence from crime scenes is a crucial component of the work done by the Lithuanian Police Forensic Science Centre. Until recently, its Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) was accessed through local PCs using standard phone lines. This made it slow, inaccessible from remoter regions, and incompatible with similar systems used throughout the European Union. It was inefficient, expensive and becoming a liability. AFIS has been transferred from local PCs to a centralised system using seven servers based on Intel Itanium 2 processors - a database server, 5 application servers, and a Web server. Interconnection is provided over a 1-Gbps LAN.
