When IT is the crux of your business, every switch, server and storage device has an impact on how you measure up against the competition. For hosting providers, high availability is an obvious must, but scalability comes a close second. Reliability has to be paired with simple expansion – not only to accommodate new customers but to support longer term business development.
At Internet Fr, great customer service rests on high uptime and expert support. Many customers opt for services running on private clouds, but for faster responses to customer and market demands, the company wanted a new cloud-based architecture.

Internet Fr can deliver solutions faster, and more effectively. Improved server utilisation rates and lower energy consumption are helping the firm strike the ever-elusive balance between efficiency and performance.
