David Soucek (Head of IT): "By outsourcing all our servers to the Azure Cloud, in conjunction with a remote desktop farm, we were able to eliminate all central hardware and backup systems and make ourselves independent of the client operating system and the place of work."

Challenge

The Institute for Human Sciences (IWM) is an academic organization with  about 60 jobs. Previously, the servers were housed as a single virtual machine with an external provider, with unsatisfactory performance.

Our solution

In the course of the Office 365 migration of the IWM by n4b, the project "Infrastructure as a Service" was also started and the remaining services (excluding mail services, which were taken over by Office 365) were migrated on several virtual machines with optimized performance. By setting up a "Remote Desktop Farm", employees now have client-independent access to all central IT services. As a result, the employees also experienced a massive increase in the performance of their IT processes.
