The Infratects Rapid Deployment Kit has been developed to help those organizations needing a quick, fully-fledged environment suitable for a number of situations;

• Disaster Recovery Scenarios
• Temporary Development Environments
• Performance Testing
• Change in Service Providers

In each of these situations the RDK can be used to either take over the function of, or act as a temporary version of your existing or proposed Hyperion Production Environment.

What is the Infratects RDK?
Essentially the RDK is a set of rack-dense servers, installed in a portable, robust rack enclosure with the necessary components and configuration to make it a standalone environment (network switches, KVM, backup units, power distribution, UPS).
The servers have been pre-installed with the necessary software and just need to be configured to match the final customer requirements once in place on location.

Why use the Infratects RDK?
The benefits of the RDK are easy to see;

• Speed of implementation – the RDK can be deployed and working with 5 days
• Guaranteed quality – Infratects install and configure all components
• Try before you buy – the RDK allows you to get a good indication of what you will really need in terms of infrastructure before you order your production environment
• Flexibility – with a full self-contained environment, there is no need to implement any local software or affect any existing IT environments

How many users can work in the RDK?
RDK’s typically support up to 50 concurrent users. However, if required, an RDK can be produced to support up to 200 concurrent users on request.

What restrictions are there with an RDK?
In principle, the only restrictions are as follows;

• Minimum rental period is 3 months
• The location where the RDK will be placed must be suitable (clean, ventilated with a reasonable power supply and network connection).
• The RDK’s can only be shipped to clients within the EU.

If any of these criteria make the RDK un-usable for you, then please take a look at the RRDK solution.

How much does an RDK cost?
Dependent upon duration of the rental, sizing and the number of installed components required, RDK’s start from €3000 per month. At the lowest price level, you will get an RDK with HFM and BI+ pre-installed and configured capable of supporting 50 concurrent users, that has automated backup and restart procedures built-in and is available for your use for 3 months.
