Blade Center and System i

DnB NOR Bank

“The Northdoor consultants provided excellent service throughout the engagement. BladeCenter is practically a data centre in itself, and Northdoor’s skill in setting up the technology was a major factor in the success of the project. Patrick Dungan, IT Director”

DnB NOR Bank were upgrading their core banking application to a new two tier architecture which required both windows and System i servers for the front and back end respectively. Working with DnB we designed a solution using Blade Center integrated with System i through iSCSI to deliver improved application performance and reduced physical footprint and power requirements.
