This partner also remotely monitors
PiLeJe’s storage, network and backup
data. Iliane’s own data centre hosts the
entire email service belonging to the
group who specialise in micronutrition
and phytotherapy. The service provider’s
confidence and capacity to support the
change were fundamental.
At the main site in St-Laurent-des-Autels,
there are currently three HPE ProLiant
DL380 servers using VMware for
virtualisation, connected to an HPE 3PAR
StoreServ 7200 storage array with a volume
of 8TB. Part of this memory takes the form
of Solid State Drives (SSD) to ensure optimal
performance. If the installation operates all
day long, the array will perform ‘automated
tiering’ at night and automatically move
blocks of data onto these SSDs, so that
users will have almost instantaneous
access to this data.
At the three other sites, Iliane had the
intelligence to recover the existing systems.
Indeed, the two HPE ProLiant DL380
servers that are still under warranty,
previously located at the group’s main site,
have been moved; one to the Paris site and
the other to the Ebreuil site. They were
upgraded and now function in the same way,
using VMware and with the same features.
Finally, the Champoceaux site, recently
updated and equipped with two HPE
ProLiant DL385 servers, has simply been
equipped with a HPE P4300 Storage Array.
Benefit
Almost 100 per cent availability
The global infrastructure now functions
in a standardised manner. Communication
between the four sites takes place through
fibre optics at 20 MB/s at all locations except
‘Ebreuil’ which is connected via an SDSL
8 MB/s line.
