| Source: Infoblox
SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwire - July 7, 2008) - Infoblox Inc. today announced that
Cincinnati-based Fifth Third Bank has deployed Infoblox appliances
company-wide for delivery of core network services, including internal and
external domain name resolution (DNS) and IP address assignment and
management (DHCP/IPAM), throughout their banking centers.
Fifth Third Bank, an elite Fortune 500 ranked company, operates over 1,300
full-service banking centers, serving customers in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana,
Michigan, Illinois, Florida, Tennessee, West Virginia, Pennsylvania,
Missouri, Georgia and North Carolina. Fifth Third Bank's IT network is
vital to delivering financial services online and from its various banking
centers. That network and the applications running on it simply will not
work without highly available core network services, which are essential to
operation of all IP networks and applications like email, web, VoIP, and
more.
Prior to Infoblox, Fifth Third Bank was using a Windows-based platform that
was not meeting the ever-increasing business requirements of the
enterprise. Fifth Third Bank Network Services had strategic concerns
regarding the previous solution's scalability, patch management, resiliency
and monitoring. In evaluating new solutions, Fifth Third Bank required a
scalable product that could provide unparalleled reliability for all of the
company's branches.
Fifth Third Bank evaluated several vendors and selected Infoblox citing
several advanced technologies and administration advantages unmatched by
other solutions.
"In selecting a new solution, having a secure, hardened platform was our
first priority," said Shawn Griffin, Senior Manager, Network Services and
Data Delivery, Fifth Third Bank. "Reliable service delivery is equally as
important and Infoblox is the clear leader on both fronts. We have had
flawless performance since we implemented the Infoblox solution."
Infoblox appliances deliver reliable, manageable, scalable, and secure core
network services and are designed for nonstop operation in high-performance
networks. Infoblox appliances can be operated in high availability pairs
and distributed devices can be linked together with Infoblox's unique grid
technology for management of core network services and infrastructure as a
unified system.
