Benefits of hosting servers at LOGIS: <br />Redundancy: <br />• Layers of redundancy with 99% uptime <br />0 3 datacenters <br />0 2-3 copies of the data <br />o Item level backups <br />0 2 copies of data for item level backups <br />o Offsite tape backups <br />o SAN snapshots, for quick recovery <br />• Servers are offsite, so if there is an issue with Orono City Hall building/power/site, <br />employees can work from a different building, home, or LOGIS. <br />Performance: <br />• Storage, processing, and network components are significantly faster/better then we can <br />build at a single local datacenter, such as Orono City Hall. <br />Scalability: <br />• LOGIS hosted environment always has additional storage/processing power and <br />network speed. We can scale any of the Orono systems up to the necessary <br />requirements, without capital expenditures. <br />Security: <br />• LOGIS datacenters has scheduled vulnerability scans to ensure security. <br />• LOGIS is protected with multiple layers of security that is cost prohibitive to reproduce at <br />the City of Orono: <br />o Intrusion Detection Prevention System <br />o Perimeter firewalls <br />o Network monitoring <br />o A full staff to monitor 24/7 <br />o Disaster Recovery plans and procedures to protect from ransomware and other <br />types of attacks. <br />Local VMWare/ESXI server: <br />Run non-critical applications such as IT utilities and surveillance on a much less <br />expensive solution such as the proposed single ESXI server at Orono City Hall. <br />Run the 1 critical Active Directory server at LOGIS and the other at Orono City Hall, to <br />provide the most redundancy possible. <br />Run high storage capacity applications on the local ESXI server to save costs, such as <br />surveillance. <br />
