About The Customer
Founded in 1997 and headquartered in McLean, Virginia, immixGroup offers a portfolio of services designed to help technology companies deliver solutions to the public sector. Government agencies at the federal, state and local levels trust the organization to provide cutting-edge commercial technology products through preferred contractors and solution providers. The company was looking to launch the immixGroup Criminal Investigative Tracking Tool (iCrITT), an innovative solution for conveniently, securely managing all information associated with child exploitation investigations.
The Challenge
To launch the immixGroup Criminal Investigative Tracking Tool (iCrITT), an innovative solution for conveniently, securely managing all information associated with child exploitation investigations, immixGroup needed a scalable, economical hosting platform. The company wanted to build a system that can be used across multiple law enforcement agencies and needed a hosting solution that would make it easy to share information, but also allow agencies to maintain the security of their case information. The company evaluated SoftLayer, Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure cloud solutions, but only SoftLayer allowed them to dedicate hardware completely to the iCrITT environment.
The Solution
Convinced that a cloud platform would provide the most flexible, cost-effective hosting environment for its iCrITT offering, immixGroup assessed leading cloud technologies. They chose SoftLayer as it allowed them to dedicate hardware completely to the iCrITT environment. When an agency uses iCrITT, they can stand up a unique set of servers and unique IP addresses to give that customer complete control. To launch the iCrITT platform, immixGroup provisioned bare metal server infrastructure with dedicated hardware in two SoftLayer data centers, configuring a private network between sites.

Manual, costly and ineffective, the local agency desired to transition from analog to digital CCTV, apply computer vision and other technologies to automatically detect potential crime in progress, expedite and streamline emergency calls and integrate with personal wearables to ensure the safety of their citizens.
