The Challenge: Outdated Infrastructure Limited Growth and Resilience
By 2012, Wynne Systems recognized that its existing infrastructure was no longer meeting the demands of its growing customer base.
The company needed to improve its disaster recovery strategy and modernize its technology environment to support future growth. Their options were to add an additional data center in a nearby state—which would require a large capital investment, operating costs, and employees to manage and monitor the data center—or outsource its infrastructure to an industry-leading IBM Power Cloud service provider.
To remain competitive, Wynne needed a partner that could deliver:
- State-of-the-art cloud-to-cloud production with high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) technology
- Senior-level architecture and engineering Power System expertise
- Software as a Service (SaaS) delivery and deployment experience from sales to onboarding to support
- Single and multi-tenant instances
- 24/7 monitoring and management
- Strong customer care
- A presence in the United States and Europe
- The ability to scale with new clients
With limited internal resources and budget constraints, Wynne needed a modern, cost-effective solution that could support long-term growth without adding operational complexity.
How Meridian IT Became Wynne Systems’ Infrastructure Partner
After researching and meeting with several companies across the country, Wynne Systems chose to partner with Meridian IT.
“Based on the feedback from one of our sister companies, we chose to work with Meridian IT because they offered all of the features we were in need of and they had a European presence,” said Van Nguyen, Director of IT Infrastructure at Wynne Systems. “In addition, their pricing model was on target for our budget.”
Meridian IT stood out by combining deep IBM Power Systems expertise with enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure, a strong global presence, and a proven track record in SaaS delivery and support. Their flexible, budget-conscious approach made it possible for Wynne Systems to modernize its infrastructure without exceeding operational constraints.
Rather than acting as just another vendor, Meridian IT became a strategic extension of Wynne Systems’ IT team, providing guidance, support, and resources that enabled the company to strengthen its infrastructure while scaling to meet global client needs.
The Solution: Scalable, Cloud-Based ERP Infrastructure
Meridian IT delivered a modern IBM Power Cloud environment designed to provide high availability, strong disaster recovery, and seamless scalability for Wynne Systems’ ERP platform.
With this cloud-based foundation in place, Wynne could confidently support new customers, improve system performance, and strengthen its disaster recovery posture—without investing in new data centers or additional internal staff.
Seamless Migration Without Extended Downtime
When Wynne Systems decided to partner with Meridian IT, one of their requirements was that they had to move their environment to Meridian IT’s data center quickly and efficiently to ensure their customers would not experience an extended outage.
“We had planned to be offline for four hours on a Friday afternoon and then use the next day to configure the system. We replicated our environment to Meridian IT, and the ‘failover’ went according to plan. I was very pleased with the transition,” commented Nguyen.
The migration was completed quickly and efficiently, ensuring Wynne’s customers experienced no extended outages.
