How The Data Center
Makes Information And Assets Nearly Impenetrable
Comarch’s new facility offers exceptional performance metrics, including extensive redundancy, seamless upgrades and, built to meet Tier III standards, an expected uptime of 99.982%. To deliver this level of performance with virtually zero interruption, Comarch precisely controls everything from physical and digital security to environmental monitoring.
Comarch Leadership considers that a key advantage for its own software development and its customers alike, who can trust their intellectual property is protected. “We can guarantee the protection of prototype products and source code before they are introduced to the market,” says Filipiak.
Physical security begins at the facility entryway; until visitor credentials are confirmed using biometric scans of their fingerprints and faces, they cannot exit or proceed past the access control system, or mantrap. Video monitoring provides detailed visual records of visitor access and activities throughout the facility—and badge access limits employees to the areas relevant to their job functions.
Data and digital assets are protected with logical firewalls that segment customer data and compute resources inside the center. Intrusion prevention, exterior firewalls and antivirus systems protect the center from outside attacks.
Meanwhile, redundant power generators, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), fire extinguishing systems and air conditioning units offer protection from environmental hazards.

Servers and other critical hardware are heavily fortified with structural and digital safeguards for elite intrusion protection. That includes cutting-edge antivirus systems, exterior firewalls and logical firewalls that separate customer data from compute resources inside the center.
How It Creates More Scalable Solutions And Modernizes Support Offerings
Comarch is expanding the value of its information and communication technology (ICT) services supporting the applications that companies use to retrieve, store, process and distribute information—at any scale. The data center’s ICT staff of elite in-house developers can offer flexible services to clients, either augmenting a client organization’s existing talent or serving as a
full-service resource.
These experts are part of Comarch’s integrated portfolio of IT and IT-enabled ICT services that provide clients with the advanced computing power and support they need to grow. Companies can more quickly respond to customer needs or reduce their operating costs with Comarch’s services that help them, for instance, easily scale or modify IT operations when they experience a sudden change, like a rapid increase in demand or shift in work environment. (To the right, explore an illustrated example of these benefits in action.)
Comarch clients can also tap into the data center’s multi-certified staff of engineers and software developers to avoid the high costs of maintaining a native IT support staff. Comarch’s teams are there to answer questions and provide support 24/7 so clients don’t waste time searching for the right solutions.
And, as data center customers grow and broaden their reach, Comarch’s enterprise IT infrastructure and ICT services teams are available to consult on the integration of cloud, managed services, IT risk, security management and more.

A car dealership is just one example of a business that can leverage Comarch’s sophisticated ICT solutions. During an end-of-year sale, for example, the dealership can rely on the data center’s powerful processing capabilities to more rapidly complete loan applications and respond to increased site traffic without any downtime. Comarch’s advanced data management tools and geolocation services can also help reach more potential buyers in more places at one time, leveraging insights from consumer touchpoints.

Comarch’s powerful hyperscale solutions allow clients to process, store and maintain data off-site as expert engineers and developers ensure it’s updated. This means the car dealership can quickly adjust to a sudden influx of customers during their big sale by rapidly responding to inventory search inquiries, issuing price quotes and generating invoices without any interruptions.
