Bank Improves Network Management and Security With New Solution

Tags:
infrastructure management

Overview Founded in 1920, Banque de Luxembourg is a private institution. The bank runs Novell NetWare 6.5 on 13 HP ProLiant server computers with Intel processors. Banque de Luxembourg wants to replace its Novell infrastructure with a solution that offers high availability, integrates with Active Directory Domain Services, and improves the manageability of its infrastructure. With support from Microsoft Services and primesphere, Banque de Luxembourg chose to replace its 13 Novell-based servers with 8 servers running the Windows Server 2008 Enterprise operating system. Two 2-node clusters will be installed to provide users with database and file and print services.
