It’s a straightforward question, and one that it didn’t take W arid Telecom long to answer . This fast-growing Pakistan mobile communications provider has recently deployed a new highly available server and storage infrastructure. The old environment used clustering solutions from both Symantec and Sun to support the UNIX and Windows platfor ms, but it made sense to standardize on one solution for the new infrastructure―as long as it offered the required availability, functionality, and performance. The answer to Warid Telecom’s question lay with Veritas Storage Foundation HA 5.0, the bundle of Veritas Storage Foundation and Veritas Cluster Server from Symantec, which has enabled the company to reduce its support services costs by 50 percent over three years. It also ensures the company benefits from the high availability of the billing system and other critical platforms. A pinan fc in Pakian bil cnicain Having completed four successful years of operation, during which the company moved from con- ceptual infancy to a market challenger, Warid Telecom Pakistan enters its fifth year as a predomi- nant force in the business and consumer mobile communications market. Warid Telecom is a joint venture between Abu Dhabi Group, one of the largest business groups in the Middle East and the single largest foreign investor in Pakistan, and SingTel Group, which acquired a 30 percent equity stake in the company for US$758 million. The rate of change in the Pakistani mobile communications market is such that technology strate- gies crafted several years ago may no l onger be sufficient to meet the explosive rate of growth in subscribers and the corresponding data volumes. Such was the case with Warid Telecom. To sufficiently meet customers’ needs, roll-out and support compelling mobile services in the shortest possible time with maximize efficiency, the company made the decision to implement a new technology infrastructure. orGANIZAtIoN ProFILe Wbi: www.waridtel.com In: Telecommunications Haqa: Pakistan symANteC soLutIoNs Data Protection High Availability Storage Management Wh sanc? · Most flexible HA/ DR solution on the market, coping equally with any operating system or hardware platform · More stable than other cluster solutions on the market · Industry-proven in the data center · First class local support in Pakistan
