Core Services selects HP

HP has announced that hosting services provider Core Services has chosen HP BladeSystem technology as part of an HP Converged Infrastructure to support increased service-level commitments for its global customers.

Based in the U.S. with locations in China and India, Core Services delivers third-party business operations solutions, information systems and support to clients worldwide. A major shift in the managed hosting landscape meant the company needed an infrastructure that could handle new customer demands for cost-effective and energy-saving solutions.

Core Services partnered with The Ergonomic Group (EGI), an HP Elite Business Partner, for infrastructure recommendations to improve application performance and deliver better services. After an evaluation, EGI concluded that Core Services' current Oracle/Sun infrastructure was unable to meet its customer needs. EGI assisted the company in designing the new infrastructure based on an HP Converged Infrastructure. It also provided guidance with installation requirements and ongoing support of the new architecture for its data centers.

Core Services selected an HP BladeSystem platform to virtualize its environment, which includes eight HP BladeSystem c7000 enclosures, 60 HP BL460 G6 and G7 blade servers, and an HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 Ethernet Module for BladeSystem. The configuration delivers the compute power, energy efficiency and performance per watt required for CPU-hungry Oracle applications.

"We needed to get ahead of a changing curve in the managed services industry with customer priorities shifting to energy- and cost-efficient solutions," said Bimal Doshi, Vice-President - Operations, Core Services. "We migrated to an HP BladeSystem environment to make the best use of every watt, hour and dollar so that we can better serve our customers."

HP Converged Infrastructure is a key foundation of an Instant-On Enterprise. In a world of continuous connectivity, the Instant-On Enterprise embeds technology in everything it does to serve customers, employees, partners and citizens with whatever they need, instantly.
