Keeping emergency services running 24/7/365

Hovedstadens Beredskab (HBR) is Copenhagen’s emergency service, serving approximately 1 million citizens. To ensure emergency services (112 in Denmark) are available around the clock, HBR runs its critical systems on Lenovo ThinkSystem servers and storage, managed by trusted partner CCIT.

Customer Problem

HBR is the largest fire and rescue service in Denmark. To keep vital 112 services running all day, every day, the organization must ensure that its IT infrastructure runs reliably 24/7/365.

Lenovo Solution

HBR selected a managed infrastructure service from CCIT based on Lenovo ThinkSystem SR630 and SR530 servers, ThinkSystem DM5000F storage, and ThinkSystem NE1032 switches.

Business Impact

Today, CCIT operates both of HBR’s data centers, managing everything from the physical hardware to virtualization and providing 24/7 monitoring. This takes the pressure off HBR’s IT team, enabling them to focus on core services.

“Robust, reliable Lenovo ThinkSystem infrastructure backed by 24/7 monitoring and expert support from CCIT help us to keep Copenhagen’s 112 services running day and night.”
