Proact’s Managed Cloud solution keeps British train operating company on track

A leading British train operating company have chosen Proact as their partner to
deliver Disaster Recovery and Backup as a Service from their Managed Cloud
Service portfolio.
The company were working with an ageing infrastructure to support DR and
required urgent investment to bring it back in-line with a recent primary
infrastructure upgrade and to ensure the company’s services would continue to
run effectively. It was clear the company needed to find the right solution to
this issue, but more importantly the right partner to deliver this and to
address their longer term goals.

The company required a partner that could demonstrate a mature Cloud services
portfolio, extensive industry references and a proven approach that they could
deliver on the companies specific requirements. Proact successfully demonstrated
all of these, and also offered the lowest TCO over 3 years when compared to the
competition.

Proact will now be responsible for DR and Backup services for the train
operating company’s IT infrastructure. This will remove the primary site issues
the company were experiencing and ensures the company can keep their services
running smoothly and on-time. In additional, a framework is now in place for the
train operating company to realise long-term objectives. This includes the
migration of more services over to Proact with a view to remove the primary DC
on their site by the end of 2017, delivering increased business agility.

This is yet another example of Proact’s continued ability to deliver market
-leading solutions and further underpin their corporate strategy to deliver
business agility to their customers.
