Interxion Dublin Data centre keeps LeasePlan motoring
"The benefit of Outsourcing core IT infrastructure to specialist data centre companies is now more apparent than ever. As many companies are faced with the need for 100% availability of their systems and infrastructure, LeasePlan demonstrates how partnering with a trusted data centre company like Interxion has benefited their business."
LeasePlan Infrastructure Services (LPIS) based in Sandyford, Dublin, supports LeasePlan Corporation's operating units in 21 countries in Europe and employs 85 people.
LeasePlan Corporation is one of the largest fleet management companies in the world. Historically, the IT infrastructure that supported its European business resided in each individual country. This all changed in 2002 when it was decided to centralise the infrastructure in Dublin. LPIS was formed to undertake the consolidation programme and manage the centralised IT systems.
"We host LeasePlan's core IT infrastructure, so if you're leasing a car, completing a deal, invoicing and so on, it's done effectively through us," explains David Ryan, managing director of LPIS. "We also host and support 30 group-wide high-availability customer-facing applications, such as mileage logging, Internet quotations, service reminders and change-to-winter-tyre prompts."
