Omrin opts for an EMC VSPEX solution from Proact for its Business Intelligence environment
Omrin, the sustainable waste collector and processor from Friesland, has chosen Proact for the delivery and implementation of a new EMC VSPEX solution for two locations. Proact provides a complete solution, including 24x7 support for hardware and software. Omrin has signed a three-year contract.
The complete solution consists of two EMC VNX5200 systems including network components and linkage to/reuse of the existing HP server and VMware infrastructure.
This new platform is based on EMC VSPEX which, in combination with Proact support, ensures a pre-validated, standardised platform that is fully aligned to, and perfectly fits the needs of Omrin with regard to performance, availability, and business agility.
Wilco Kooistra, Team Leader of IT Management: “We chose Proact and EMC VSPEX because EMC best reflects the wishes of the users of Omrin. Availability, quality and a sustainable approach were thereby high on the agenda."
Through the use of, among other things, the Fully Automated Storage Tiering (FAST) concept in combination with FLASH within the VNX systems, Omrin will benefit from a lower total cost of ownership and an extremely high performance for its business applications and Business Intelligence environment.
In addition to the hardware and software, Proact also delivers its own professional services and 24x7 support.
"Through its work with leading business partners, Proact always has access to the latest technologies and can therefore offer its customers the best combination of hardware and software. We look forward to a successful partnership with Omrin, and, together with our strategic partner EMC, we both hope to welcome many new customers", said Lucas den Os, Managing Director of Proact Netherlands.
