Implementation of a new storage infrastructure to address critical disk space issues and modernize the school’s IT infrastructure while adhering to a limited budget.

The high school needed to replace an aging, end-of-life SAN. The limited storage space was preventing the creation of new virtual machines and threatening operational continuity.

Additionally, the client faced a limited budget, complicating the immediate comprehensive upgrade of the infrastructure. The school also lacked resources and specialized expertise to carry out the project independently.

Prival enabled the school to have a modern storage infrastructure that meets its immediate needs and will remain effective for the next five years.

The data migration, carefully conducted, was completed in less time than anticipated. The school now benefits from a reliable and efficient architecture, ensuring the continuity of essential activities.

We recommended and implemented a new DELL storage unit. Virtual machines were seamlessly transferred from the old storage system to the new SAN with no major interruptions. Once systems were validated, the old SAN was disconnected. This project, meticulously planned and executed, met the client’s expectations while staying within the allocated budget.

Implementation of a new LAN infrastructure on which the school will continue to evolve and provide the technological and educational services necessary for present and future education, administration and safety.

The college wanted to purchase LAN and to replace its antiquated switches. The college had an aging networking environment that had to be changed for more performance (10 GB) and greater connection flexibility. Indeed, the multimedia laboratories, used daily by students, lacked performance.

AeroScout (Stanley HealthCare)

Prival has chosen to deploy the WiFi geolocation Aeroscout (Stanley HealthCare) leading RFID solution. This solution enables health providers around the world to reduce costs, facilitate regulatory compliance and improve the safety of patients. More than 400 hospitals have chosen AeroScout solutions for asset management, equipment management, monitoring of the temperature and humidity, and the safety of patients and staff.

Meru Networks (Fortinet)

Prival has also installed architecture WiFi Meru Networks (Fortinet). Meru is specifically designed for environments where high-density wireless traffic is generated by critical enterprise applications.

Finally, the client asked Prival to provide training to its employees. The course offered by Prival is designed to provide all the skills required in the wireless and AeroScout environment. The course was held at the customer’s office, in the deployed environment.

Establishment of a new, fully modernized, efficient and problem-free environment.

The college was looking for a company with advanced expertise to help in the choice of technologies but who could also handle the deployment for a turnkey solution.

Establishment of a new, fully modernized, efficient and problem-free environment.

Prival has deployed a VMware solution as well as other Microsoft technologies in order to enhance the overall solution and allow a highly integrated project combining networking, virtualization and storage products. Virtualization of servers with VMware solution allows it to reduce its energy costs, the amount of physical material and to simplify its management systems. Security has been enhanced by the introduction of a Fortinet Firewall, forcing students to observe safety rules.
