Business critical services journey to the cloud

Universities such as MMU have to operate as businesses

Financial systems are critical to their success

Yet traditional SAP ‘server sprawl’ was crippling growth and resiliency

Virtualisation of legacy UNIX as well as VMware

The journey to a private cloud starts with virtualisation

Bull designed and implemented a two-tier virtualised SAP architecture with both high-end AIX and front-end VMware

With proven DR capability and storage capacity

Enabling Europe’s largest car dealership solution

ADP Dealer Services provides services to automotive dealers

Traditional on-premise ISV + box business model

Or secure multi-tenant private SaaS hosting

Bull has enabled ADP to fully maintain all systems

Complete reseller model

Facilitating European affiliate deployment

And extension to commercial trade-desks for another ADP business

Across multiple technology (UNIX and Intel) platforms

Information management in the cloud

With students and business incubators both at home and overseas Coventry University needs IT to match its flexible growth strategy Dynamic call upon information storage over the academic year posed capacity problems

Expanded storage infrastructure with capacity for rapid growth

Implemented Bull-designed hybrid cloud model: core on-premise for performance and variable demand off-premise

Allowing predictable growth (and cyclical shrinkage) costs with lower IT management risk

bullion X86 enterprise server: the fastest in the world

“The very high scores attained for Leadership, Policy and Strategy and People Management during the Certification Audit has again been improved and really defines the management’s commitment to people development and excellent service delivery.”

The Service Desk Institute

Key Indicators: “the existence and people's understanding of the company's aims and Objectives, the way the company encourages people to contribute their ideas to Improve performance and ensures everyone receives the development and support they need… …the way the company recognises and values people's contribution.”
