Case Study

An insurance company is evaluating its current IT infrastructure, which includes an outdated DEC 2100 Alpha Server and various older Compaq Pentium computers. The existing setup struggles with slow response times and inefficiencies, particularly during end-of-month operations.

Improving the old server

The cheapest way. But no guarantee that the response time will imporve. Old server, no spare parts available.

Extra Hard disk
Aditional RAM
Buy new PC's

Old IT technologies

Server is not capable of running 20 computers.

Response time is very slow. End of month work takes too long. Processing speed is slow.
