An Intel Technology-Based Computing Infrastructure Helps a Leading Wireless Mobile Messaging Provider to Maintain Growth, Enhance Developer Productivity and Prepare for the Future

Overview AKN Messaging Technologies Bhd (AKN MTECH), a leading provider of wireless mobile messaging products was growing rapidly - expanding products and services, headcount, strategic alliances and branch offices. The desktop PCs it had used as servers in its startup phase could not keep pace with the company's growing transaction, storage, performance and reliability needs. The company implemented a computing infrastructure consisting of servers based on Intel Xeon processors and client workstations based on Intel Pentium 4 processors supporting Hyper-Threading Technology. The PCs came to AKN MTECH with operating systems installed by Wynet - 70 percent of the servers with Linux and 30 percent with Microsoft Windows Server 2003, and all of the clients running Microsoft Windows XP Professional.
