A Ubuntu Case Study
Emphony Technologies, a new business building project management software for industries including engineering and construction, needed a cost-effective, reliable, and always-available IT infrastructure. The company chose Ubuntu Server Edition and Ubuntu on the desktop to support both common workloads like file, print, and email, as well as 24x7 customer-facing applications.
Ubuntu delivered a quick-to-deploy server environment that was easy to maintain and manage remotely, with Emphony also considering Landscape and Canonical Support as it scales. The result was 100 per cent uptime with no downtime for more than a year, plus significant cost savings: Emphony says Ubuntu saved at least £6,630 in licensing costs in its first month alone.
