IBM and Best-of-Breed Hardware
Why depend on anything less than the industry's best infrastructure?
Performance and reliability where it matters most. Choose your dedicated servers, server cluster, or pick infrastructure-as-a-service and depend on the utility computing platform from FastRoot.
|
Agility equals dependability – and that demands best-of-breed infrastructure.
- We chose infrastructure partners carefully, selecting only those we can trust with our most precious assets: our reputation and our client’s critical systems.
- Our close relationships with those partners ensures ironclad and immediate supply and support for every element in our infrastructure.
- Our engineers are continually trained and certified on the infrastructure they manage, making their expertise with the equipment second to none.
- We put our infrastructure vendors to the toughest tests around – because every piece of hardware has to integrate seamlessly into production environments, and scale rapidly under your changing demands.

IBM servers offer proven hardware reliability, but the demands of Agility™ go several steps beyond the obvious strengths of the IBM brand. Their servers are highly manageable, and integrate well with our IT automation systems. Plus, the hardware virtualization built into the servers we choose unleashes real processing power. And as a strategic vendor, Agility™ receives IBM hardware and parts immediately, meaning you enjoy around-the-clock support for the equipment on our data center floor. |
|
Cisco provides core routing and switching throughout the Agility™ network, and bridges between our data centers. Our network engineers can specialize on an integrated network infrastructure, with end-to-end security and the most reliable network uptime in the industry. |

With a combination of features that go beyond traditional enterprise SAN solutions, Compellent storage architecture provides a perfect balance of sophistication and simplicity. Compellent is quickly emerging as a bright new star in the storage industry, and we find its manageability to be perfect for our engineering team. These SAN solutions adapt within minutes to match our customer’s changing needs. |

After our engineers ran extensive head-to-head tests among F5 and the two other leading brands, choosing the F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager was a no-brainer. Real-world performance results are clear: more requests per second, better throughput, faster SSL acceleration and superior compression. |
|
Citrix application delivery infrastructure, particularly components like Citrix Access Gateway™ and Citrix Presentation Server™ solutions, are easy standards for our engineering team to adopt and manage, providing remote access solutions and multi-instance deployment for your applications. |
|
For perimeter and DMZ security management, we’ve selected Fortinet, manufacturer of the FortiGate firewall and security management systems. Fortinet is quickly maturing as an industry leader, and our engineers deploy their hardware owing to how well it integrates with Agility™ management systems, and the cost/value proposition of their standard features. |
