Networking solutions provider Elina Networks has deployed a comprehensive suite of network solutions at AnandRathi Financial Solutions, a full-service securities firm. Elina’s unified, muti-service architecture – ENPAQ Business Gateway solution – will be responsible for all data network connectivity providing routing, firewall, security, link failover, LAN segregation and virtual private network (VPN) functionality to connect the AnandRathi’s key applications.
AnandRathi will use the ENPAQ Business Gateways to connect all its remote business locations (about 350) via VSAT/LL with failover on VPN-over-broadband to provide connectivity, thereby creating a networked environment for its business critical applications. Using the solution at each remote branch location, AnandRathi will be able to guarantee seamless networking services to more than 4,500 staff at all times.
Vivek Shenoy, chief technology officer of Elina Networks said, “One of the key reasons why AnandRathi selected Elina Networks was our complete remote management service offered by ENPAQ Business Gateways. Using its distributed management architecture, our services allow total control and central administration of the gateways for all operations, including software and feature upgrades.”
“Our Business Gateways are custom-built to reduce complexity in branch operations. They include unified networking, security, and monitoring functionality on a completely remotely manageable platform. By unifying branch services, customers like AnandRathi can improve network reliability and reduce branch operating costs, while responding more quickly to problems and performing upgrades,” added Shenoy.
Bhavesh Shah, chief technology officer of AnandRathi Group said, “Elina has simplified network deployment and management for AnandRathi. We are excited about the virtualised application support, critical security, and the management framework at Elina. We can now deploy our business critical applications and networking functions on a single off-the-shelf PC/ server, dramatically reducing costs and support personnel.”
“The use of ENPAQ in our branches will better our distributed management and monitoring framework, all from a central site. Integrating third party applications in the Elina framework means that AnandRathi can now control both critical applications and networking centrally, using Elina’s distributed management framework,” Shah added.
