IT project: This project, dubbed "Red.IT" (or "Redundant IT Infrastructure"), enables the hospital to perform failover and failback tests twice a year. With VMware Site Recovery Manager, the hospital has also improved the availability of its most critical application, SAP, as well as that of medium-priority applications (95% of which are virtualised).
What the judges said: "An ideal virtualisation disaster recovery project."
