Case Study: Alfa-Bank achieves 24/7 business continuity with Precisely's Assure MIMIX HA

Alfa-Bank - Customer Case Study

Alfa-Bank, one of Russia’s largest private banks, struggled with required nightly “end of day” downtime that took ATMs, internet banking and transactions offline. Facing expansion across multiple time zones and strict requirements for protecting critical financial applications (including MISys Equation), the bank selected Precisely’s Assure MIMIX HA — implemented in partnership with IBM Russia — to eliminate both planned and unplanned IT outages and achieve nonstop business continuity.

Precisely implemented Assure MIMIX HA to provide real-time replication and a switch-ready backup on IBM Power Systems, including integration with the MISys 24x7 Continuous Processing Facility. The solution virtually eliminated end-of-day and unexpected downtime, delivering 24/7 business continuity across all time zones, uninterrupted customer access to ATMs and internet banking, continuous protection of critical data, proven HA compatibility, and a fast, trouble-free implementation by Precisely.
