关于客户
The Worcester County Sheriff’s Office is a public safety IT department operating two sites (primary and DR), supporting 550 staff. The office serves one of the largest counties in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and runs a variety of mission critical applications including Public Safety Jail Management Software, Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server and SharePoint. The office prides itself on leveraging technology to enable operational excellence. However, for about six years, the office had been running on a legacy HP infrastructure comprised of 16 servers and multiple, complex SANs. Tuning the environment for performance was a complex task. Backup “best practices” were not being followed and the office’s data center footprint was large, generating much waste.
挑战
The Worcester County Sheriff’s Office had been operating on an outdated DIY IT infrastructure. The IT team was running all of its operations on a 16-server, legacy HP infrastructure with a complex, expensive SAN and storage. The small team in IT was forced to cope with a large data center footprint that was complex to scale and manage and had no automated backup and DR capability whatsoever. In addition to dealing with the outdated, cumbersome legacy infrastructure, the IT team was operating under the constant threat of major data loss. With no service level agreements implemented for RPOs and RTOs within its infrastructure, the office’s mission critical applications were always at risk.
解决方案
After evaluating a new and improved HP solution, the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office was approached by Corporate IT (Corp IT), a reseller of OmniCube, SimpliVity’s Data Virtualization Platform. On advice from the Corp IT team, the office decided to evaluate OmniCube and found it to be a significantly more cost-effective, efficient solution than its HP equivalent. The office installed three OmniCube CN-3000s across two separate on-campus locations in West Boylston. Currently, everything is located on the OmniCubes with the exception of two physical servers. Before the switch to a Data Virtualized Platform, the office’s data center had housed three fully utilized racks. Since the implementation of OmniCube hyperconverged infrastructure, the IT team has consolidated down to one rack in the data center.

Case Study
Smart City Public Safety
Amyx+ worked with a local government authority to develop an Internet of Things-enabled public safety strategy. In the current state, vigilance meant manually scanning through potentially hundreds of analog surveillance videos feeds. 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.

Intamac And Securitas Collaborate To Improve Monitoring Structures
Securitas wanted to give new and existing customers a proposition that was unlike anything they had offered before, a security system that broke the traditional mould but took advantage of the monitoring infrastructure that was already in place, including the manned response capabilities and alarm receiving centres.
