In line with its tradition of being Pakistan's most progressive bank, United Bank Limited (UBL) recently joined hands with Microsoft in order to complete a highly successful transition to a fully-virtualised server scenario. Utilising Microsoft's Hyper-V system for the project, the primary conversion will be fully implemented by December 2015, with the hot sites being completed by April 2016. This transition will result in a number of operational savings for the bank, as well as opening up a route to private cloud usage.
Microsoft is assisting UBL in setting up a new back-end infrastructure comprising a set of Hyper-V clusters aided by some additional blade servers through a completely disruption free transition. This move will result in a lot of technological benefits for UBL along with cost savings.-PR
