After consideration of offers from several large providers for project implementation the flagman data processing center of Linxdatacenter in St. Petersburg corresponding to the level of reliability of Tier 3 was selected. This data center has the multistage security system including two-stage authentication with access on fingerprints. Reliability of DPC is also confirmed by certificates of ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and also PCI DSS and FSTEC. The conditions created in data center allowed Allianz to be limited at placement of the equipment to standard security measures without construction of additional perimeter of an obstacle.

Besides, the international practice of Linxdatacenter allowing clients to receive within one SLA a range of services in the field of DPC, cloud solutions and telecommunications both in Russia and in other countries of presence of the company became additional benefit. It is especially relevant for the large organizations working worldwide such as Allianz. For the maximum convenience of foreign partners all main specialists of Linxdatacenter know English, and documents are translated into a foreign language.

Specialists of Linxdatacenter provided the place for placement of the equipment of Allianz, provided uninterrupted power supply, necessary level of cooling and also connected communication lines. As a result of Allianz it was succeeded to create the failsafe reserve platform, having avoided high construction expenses and support of own DPC. Besides, using capacities of data center, Allianz can quickly scale the project, adding the additional hardware or addressing cloud solutions of Linxdatacenter.
