Case Study: Crown Point Community School Corporation achieves sub-5-minute failover and peace of mind with Vision Solutions iTERA HA

Crown Point Community School Corporation - Customer Case Study

Crown Point Community School Corporation, a public school system in Indiana serving 7,600+ students across multiple schools, needed a reliable way to protect 13 years of student records and keep critical services (financials, student information, bus routing) continuously available. Tape-based backups risked up to 24 hours of lost data and a state audit flagged inadequate recovery planning, while tight public budgets required a cost-conscious solution and a goal of restoring operations within 15 minutes.

Working with Competitive Support Options and Vision Solutions, CPSC deployed iTERA HA with two IBM i servers to maintain real-time replication and enable rapid role swaps. The solution was remotely installed and quickly implemented, required about 15–20 minutes a day of monitoring, and passed a full role-swap test in 30 seconds. The district achieved faster-than-planned recovery (under five minutes), stayed within budget, and gained the operational confidence and peace of mind they needed.
