IBM selected by Bendigo and Adelaide Bank


Bendigo and Adelaide Bank has selected computer giant IBM to provide its IBM XIV Storage System Gen3 as a key infrastructure component for its ongoing development and delivery of customer business applications.
Bendigo and Adelaide Bank storage team leader Greg Smith confirmed selection of the component this week. He said the organisation was already familiar with the technology benefits of IBM XIV Gen2 units, which were in the Bendigo data centre.
The XIV Gen3 units will be deployed as part of a set of upgrades, which includes new IBM SAN Volumes Controller nodes, to improve capacity for Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's customer service operations.
"The main thrust of application development has been around knowing and understanding customers better, and delivering applications which provide better services to them," Smith said.
