Category: Data Management, Networking and Communications
Tags: customer service, server, infrastructure, data
Overview Having experienced tremendous business growth in recent years, Scottrade was pushing its data center to the limits. The company needed a data center that would allow it to add features for its customers while still providing fast, accurate online trades. The CIO's vision was to create a secure, high-speed data center that could take the company to the next level of online customer service and handle the increasing complexity and capacity needs. The new Scottrade Data Center was built for 10 gigabit, high-speed, low-latency, scalability and redundancy. The design is a three-tiered Cisco Catalyst 6500 switch infrastructure with Cisco 7600 Internet edge and server load balancing modules positioned in the distribution layer.
