Repairing the virtualisation infrastructure
In order to meet the requirements of a high-performance and high-availability infrastructure and to expand it in a future-proof manner, the software manufacturer ProLeiT AG relies on the experience and specialized knowledge of our consultants to repair the cluster mix.
ProLeiT AG develops and supplies automation solutions for the process industry worldwide. Users are global players from the brewing, beverage, food, bakery, dairy, pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical, and chemical industries. The ProLeiT business model requires a powerful and highly available infrastructure. In order to meet these requirements and expand the IT infrastructure in a future-proof manner, the software manufacturer trusted Softline's consultants, who masterfully solved this sensitive task with experience and specialized knowledge.
“We are very grateful to Softline's consultants for taking on our technically demanding challenges. No other service provider dared to tackle this project. With Softline, you just feel that their services end with satisfied customers, not order completion. When we need specialized knowledge, we are always happy to call on Softline's expertise.”
