SUCCESS STORY

First State Community Bank

Name of Client:

First State Community Bank

Market Segment:

Banking

Challenge or Opportunity:

First State Community Bank utilized 20 servers to provide for their ever-increasing business needs. They wished to ease the stress on their electrical and HVAC systems as well as decrease the floor space and infrastructure management costs.

Solution:

Offered virtualization technology from EMC as an across-the-board solution. Virtualization technology provides load balancing, management tools, data consolidation and high-availability, which is automated fail-over for servers in the event that physical server equipment fails.

Results/Benefits:

Virtualization technology has cut their current number of servers from 20 down to 5, freed up valuable floor and rack space, and significantly decreased their utility bills.

 
The staff at Technology and Networking has years of experience in providing services to banking customers from technology support as well as policy and procedure development. With their sound foundation and the coalition of the FICOM members, they continue to assist us with staying competitive and able to meet the challenges of today's banking industry. - Marla Barber, The Bank of Missouri
