"An interesting point which is not to be<br />
sniffed at is <strong>the</strong> capacity that such a computer<br />
centre <strong>of</strong>fers. Currently, we host around<br />
400 customer systems. Since we have had <strong>the</strong><br />
opportunity to use servers not just like big,<br />
bulky cupboards, <strong>the</strong> capacity has increased<br />
immensely," explains Zimmermann. Server<br />
hardware can be reduced by virtualising it.<br />
This specifically means: Using particular technologies,<br />
many applications can be stored on<br />
one system.<br />

Partners when it comes to broadband<br />
Broadband supply for Bocholt's businesses<br />
is a joint project with <strong>the</strong> business development<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> city <strong>of</strong> Bocholt and Bocholt's<br />
energy and water supply. "It is especially important<br />
in <strong>the</strong> economic area to have a fast,<br />
reliable and affordable internet connection",<br />
explains Peter Tiemann, who supported <strong>the</strong><br />
project. Broadband <strong>of</strong>fers fast data transfer<br />
in both directions - a feature conventional<br />
DSL simply couldn't <strong>of</strong>fer. Tiemann continues:<br />
"Nothing is possible without <strong>the</strong> internet.<br />
To ensure "a lot" can happen and that data is<br />
sent quickly and on a larger scale, an optimal<br />
connection to <strong>the</strong> net is imperative." <strong>The</strong> customer<br />
receives <strong>the</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional broadband<br />
connection via a so-called Point <strong>of</strong> Presence<br />
(POP) directly in <strong>the</strong>ir industrial area. <strong>The</strong><br />
lines are wired radially and are operated<br />
through a central provider (e.g. Telekom).<br />
"Depending on <strong>the</strong> version, we can install<br />
several <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se 'BackBone connections' or a<br />
fibre optic line. This is always discussed individually<br />
with <strong>the</strong> customer and adapted to <strong>the</strong><br />
individual needs", Tiemann says.<br />
Available across Germany and <strong>the</strong> world<br />
By no means are <strong>the</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional broadband<br />
connections through Lanfer Systemhaus limited<br />
to Bocholt and its surrounding area. Finally<br />
Peter Tiemann explains: "If somewhere in<br />
Germany at least three business join up, we can<br />
also provide a broadband POP <strong>the</strong>re".<br />
In addition, <strong>the</strong> services <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> computer<br />
centre can also be used worldwide. Peter<br />
Tiemann finally adds: "With a good internet<br />
connection, customers from all over <strong>the</strong><br />
world can rely on our services and resort to<br />
