Mike Koslosky, IS Director-Systems Support Organization at Sandata, states "We selected CDI because of their technical expertise. Anthony Ferrante, CDI Sales Manager, and Ed Karasinski, CDI Technical Consultant, helped to architect and design a High Availability solution to give Sandata 7x24 system accessibility."

A division of Sandata, National Medical Health Card Systems, Inc. (NMHCS) has been providing prescription benefits for clients since 1981. NMHCS effectively manages and integrates prescription benefits programs with technology. NMHCS is a pharmaceutical prescription card solution that originally required 2 separate hardware platforms – NT and DataGeneral. It has migrated from the old legacy environment to the new state of the art application, PHI. PHI is an OLTP & DSS environment using Oracle 8.15 as the database. PHI is currently installed on the N-Class running HP-UX 11.0 utilizing MC ServiceGuard for High Availability.

Because of the high volume of transactions and the growing business, Sandata has selected the XP-256 for all storage requirements. The XP-256 has approximately 2 TB of available storage to accommodate for the multiple applications that will be connected to the storage array. Mike Koslosky stated, "the XP-256 allows the ability to quickly expand storage and connectivity with minimal to no disruption of service to my end users." The N-Class server was selected because, "it is the only cost-effective solution to support the 100,000 plus calls per day that are managed by Santrax," confirmed Mike Koslosky.
