Jahr Projekt Involved Companies Technologies Used2017 A WMS/MFC-system for a 20-aisle-highbay-storage warehouse

that was originally (in the late 1990s) installed on an IBM HACMP-cluster (2 RS6000-servers running AIX 4.3) was ported to a an up-to-date virtualized RedHat-Linux-platform. Local disks of the hostingVMware systems are shadowed using Linbit-DRBD. In this way it waspossible to implement data redundancy and high-availability withoutan expensive cloud-storage-system.
