Lingenheld Group choose FUJITSU server PRIMERGY RX series

"Even in industries such as civil engineering – where IT is not a direct tool of field work - a technological breakdown is incredibly restrictive and we would grind to a halt"

Franck Lingenheld, Managing Director, Lingenheld Group

The customer

Lingenheld SAS is an independent SME, whose management remains firmly family-controlled, employing 450 people and turning over €120 million annually. The group is structured around four pillars, each representing one of its four areas: civil engineering, property development, environment and industry. Lingenheld has evolved to serve the entire north-east of France, specifically the regions of Moselle, Meurthe-et-Moselle, Bas-Rhin, Haut-Rhin and Vosges.

Its expertise spans all tasks related to modern transport networks: large earthworks, road construction, landscaping and urban construction, sewer and pipeline construction.

The challenge

Installation of a second data center
Create a backup environment to guarantee group production
Provide a core ERP system: Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 with the 4PS application layer

The solution

1 x FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY RX350 with DataCore software at the backup site
2 x FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY RX350 with DataCore software at the head office

The benefit

The DataCore software allows a synchronous fiber channel storage area network (FC SAN) to be installed at the head office
The site recovery manager (SRM), VMware tool, is perfect for disaster recovery planning; above all it allows tests to be carried out on the backup environment without affecting production
The solution built around VMware and DataCore, with Fujitsu hardware, has helped to create the necessary interfaces to test disaster recovery plans
