Caso de éxito: Mail platform migration

Briefing

Migrate the Postfix mail server to an open-source solution that meets the requirements of email volume and scalability.

Solution

Once Qindel Group had carried out a consultancy and analysed the different alternatives, it proposed a migration to the open-source Zimbra Collaboration Suite, on Red Hat servers, running on the university’s VMware infrastructure.

Zimbra was proposed as a service provider because it met the following requirements:

• Increased scalability and high availability.
• Increased security and protection.
• Fault tolerance.
• More robust.
• Simpler and more efficient management.

Result

The migration resulted in huge cost savings in terms of licensing costs for the University.

The use of open-source software has also allowed the solution to be customised, making it possible to adapt it to the specific needs of the client.
