Ambitious virtualization project brings infrastructure to higher level  

Zaltbommel, 23 November 2010 – Bravilor Bonamat, a leading international organization in developing, manufacturing and selling professional beverage preparation systems, has selected Qurius as its ICT partner to implement a completely new virtualized server environment, to ensure optimal flexibility and high availability.

As an international company with high demands on quality, service and innovation, Bravilor was looking for a partner who would be able to clearly identify its ICT needs and priorities and could develop an infrastructure that would be in line with the company’s strategy.

In the first phase, Qurius completed a Roadmap to Virtualization: consisting of a scan of the current infrastructure environment and an investigation of the needs and future strategy of the company, which resulted in a proposal for a new infrastructure that provides high availability, reliability and flexibility for future growth of the system and its users.

Jeroen Kok, IT Manager at Bravilor: “Following the Roadmap phase, we selected Qurius because of their professional advice and extensive expertise in virtualization and infrastructure. Qurius’ vision on sustainability, innovation and long term partnerships fits in with our mission of becoming the most inspiring and innovative strategic partner for our customers worldwide.”

The overall project has already started and consists of providing the Roadmap and developing a technical design for the new environment; in addition to implementing a server environment of IBM servers and storage, including Cisco network tools and VMware, and, finally, implementation and project management.
