HCM Amazon Web Services Case Studies

Client: A Fortune 100 multinational technology and services company

Project: Utilize Amazon Web Services to deploy Global Mail System Proof-of-Concept

Overview

This customer needed to prototype a new global email system based on Sun Microsystems’ Messaging Server and requiring multiple UNIX servers. They also wanted to test integration between this new system and MS Exchange to simulate mail and calendar migration for client systems. This customer was considering deploying physical servers in their own data centers at considerable cost.

Solution

HCM proposed a far more cost-effective solution using Utilizing Amazon Web Services. This approach eliminated the high cost of a physical prototype by configuring the entire mail POC environment using AWS EC2. The customer was able to fully test the solution, including mail, calendaring, Windows clients and integration with Exchange, at a huge cost savings.
