About the Project
NTT DATA Business Solutions was awarded the contract for this project – thus began, in April 2012, a rapid and targeted migration period. In just three months the entire transfer of the systems to the NTT DATA Business Solutions data center in Poznan took place; for the final migration, only 24 hours remained. One ERP 3-System Landscape, one BW 3-System Landscape and one Solution Manager with, in all, more than two Terabytes of data were successfully migrated.
In its operation of the system, the data center in Poznan uses not only the most modern AIX infrastructure. It is also part of a redundant MPLS structure with a link directly to the global ArcelorMittal backbone. Thus it is assured at all times that is available with optimal performance access. And through the direct integration of the data center to the AcelorMittal WAN, the answer times of applications are accelerated measurably.
“The competent, expert impression that the NTT DATA Business Solutions advisors conveyed right from our solicitation of bids, was one they were able to back up“, reports Marina Savchina, Project Director at ArcelorMittal Kryviy Rih. “The migration took place quickly and without complications – and here we stand prepared for the future, since we can support our company development with the capabilities of the data center in Poznan whenever we need to.”
