Success Story Schmetterling Reisen
Customer
Schmetterling GmbH & Co. KG
Schmetterling GmbH & Co. KG is the largest medium-sized, independent tourism distribution company in Germany. The company includes the largest tour operator-independent travel agency cooperation with more than 3,500 travel agencies in Europe, the tour operator Schmetterling Reisen, the only nationwide transport company in Germany and the technology division with the first full-service technology package specifically for travel agencies in Europe.
Challenge
Schmetterling operates the largest independent, medium-sized travel agency cooperation in Europe. The 3,500 affiliated travel agents and tour operators can rely on Schmetterling’s services for the development and operation of their IT solutions, among other things. To do this, the full-service provider must be able to provide the growing number of different solutions with consistently high performance, reliability, security, and efficiency.
Solution
To enable the company’s own IT experts to concentrate on developing and maintaining the applications, the tourism service provider opted for noris network AG to host all servers and storage systems. The outsourcing partner realizes the comprehensive 24/7 monitoring of the hardware and the applications running on it, operates the comprehensive network infrastructure and guarantees reliable protection against threats from the Internet.
Project success
The IT applications of Schmetterling and its affiliated cooperation partners have been switched to modern IT in the data centres of noris network without interruption. The use of modern virtualization technology enables the high-performance operation of several independent systems on one physical server. The resources can be optimally utilized, and the infrastructure can be flexibly adapted to new requirements at any time.
