Case Study - Scenario 1: Expansion!
The customer had out grown his current service. Web traffic
had increased significantly placing too much stress on
the single dedicated server, which was running the database
Web server and software firewall all on the same machine.
Security was a concern since a colleague’s server
had recently been compromised -exposing vital customer
data! To make matters worse some of this vital information
had been corrupted and forever lost.
The customer needed to both increase performance and security
while ensuring the safety of the customer data.
