IMP Bautest AG is a private institute for materials science, construction advisory services and analytics. Due to the fact that the company deals with processing enormous amounts of critical data that enable them creating 3D-models used in traffic route planning, they required a reliable solution that reduces the downtime to the maximum. At the same time, the solution was to offer the highest capacity, speed, high availability and the best scalability. After consulting their demands with Thomas-Krenn, IMP Bautest decided to implement the ZFS-based Open-E JovianDSS into their environment, which turned out to be the best decision they could make.

„The time savings for IMP Bautest are twofold. Transferring the data collected by I.R.I.S. takes now less than a third of the time previously required. Each year the system can spend several hundred additional operating hours on customer orders. For this reason, the project has paid for itself in just a few months. In addition, the processing of raw data also runs much smoother and reduces the workload of the specialists involved. The old storage system was at its limit during transmission, but the new one was far from being fully utilized. We are now working on speeding up the transmission on the part of I.R.I.S. and expecting time savings to increase by a factor of two."
