City of Pinellas Park

The City of Pinellas Park asked us to upgrade its information systems infrastructure for the ensuing five years. This upgrade would include a migration to a new AS/400-720 for production applications and installation of new AS/400-170s. One AS/400-170 supports emergency dispatching systems, while the other functions as a Lotus Domino Server and firewall for the City's Internet access.

We installed six Netfinity servers to support an environment of two-hundred network stations. The network stations replaced terminals, otherwise known as "Green screens," and older PCs. One hundred of the newer existing PCs were configured to use Citrix Metaframe ICA client software to provide thin-client functionality.

Rolling out this application allowed The City to take advantage of network-wide load balancing, global access to all applications and centrally-controlled desktop support. The ability to perform such services from a central controlled site significantly lowered Pinellas Park's overall cost of desktop processing.
