Overview
A major UK insurer needed a robust cloud-based solution for call recording archival, migrating around 200 million legacy call records from multiple file types and tape technologies to a secure, searchable platform.
In order to meet their requirements, Krome designed a large, cloud-based StorARCH solution to host approximately 200 million call records, Krome designed the solution with 800TB’s of Dell EqualLogic PS Series Storage, Force 10 Dell Networking Switches, PowerEdge R8000 Series Servers and Palo Alto Networks Firewalls. The solution is hosted across two geographically diverse data centre locations.
In addition to the physical infrastructure, Krome’s bespoke StorARCH solution enables the call recording data to be comprehensively searched and retrieved, via a secure central access, by call recording site, date or time of call, agent name, policy number, client name or any other data available from the original metadata file.
“Krome certainly exceeded our expectations, we were not sure that all of the historic data could be successfully migrated, but Krome achieved it. There were multiple challenges along the way, where other people would have regarded the task as impractical or impossible, Krome found a way to overcome them.”
