Case Study: AMPORTS achieves guaranteed disaster recovery and high availability with Vision Solutions' MIMIX HA for i5/OS

AMPORTS - Customer Case Study

AMPORTS is a major U.S. portside vehicle-processing company with about 800 employees that handles roughly 525,000 vehicles a year for automakers like Ford, GM, Volvo and Hyundai. Its custom port-tracking application and frequent customer reporting are business-critical—automakers require real-time data and even short outages can cost tens of thousands of dollars and disrupt operations—so meeting high-availability and disaster-recovery requirements was essential.

AMPORTS deployed Vision Solutions’ MIMIX HA for i5/OS to replicate its port-tracking system and JD Edwards financials to a remote backup server and implemented AutoGuard monitoring. The implementation enabled successful quarterly switch tests, faster problem detection and remediation, continuous operations during outages, and has become a key sales and customer-retention differentiator by assuring automakers that DR/HA needs are met.
