The Mobility Cooperative is the leading carshare provider in Europe with over 93’000 customers and 1’200 sites. The electronic reservation system is the heart of the company, with over 1.7 million reservation transactions per year. As a result of strong growth, the cooperative’s own computer center could no longer meet the new demands.
The choice was between taking care of this themselves and outsourcing. Mobility chose Swisscom telehousing. The solution is based on two geographically separate sites for the primary and secondary data center. The centers are connected to Swisscom’s data highway redundantly using fibre optics. A redundant power supply, UPS systems, cooling systems, an early fire warning system and a fire fighting system, as well as access control provide the highest security.
The Managed Housing Service with private room is tailored to Mobility and satisfies the strict requirements for availability and security. Mobility purchases transparent services at a fixed monthly price. The modular solution offers Mobility dynamic growth and also ensures that the value of the investment is well protected.
«Swisscom offered by far the best overall solution for telehousing including network communication.»
Thomas Purtschert, Head of IT of the Mobility Cooperative
