AXIO-NET: Outsourcing enables AXIO-NET to focus on core business

Challenge

Having acquired the business, AXIO-NET needed to recreate the entire networked IT services architecture supporting its ascos satellite positioning system

Solution

BT implemented all business-relevant data centre services and set up a fully resilient MPLS-based network under a multi-year outsourcing agreement

Value

The fully redundant network delivers savings whilst providing a blend of stability, security, and scalability for future growth

Behind AXIO-NET GmbH (AXIO-NET) are two of the most experienced and successful companies in the development, operation, and provision of satellite services – EADS Astrium Services GmbH (a subsidiary of European Aeronautics Defence and Space Company) and Allsat GmbH network+services. In early 2008, the two companies jointly founded AXIO-NET with the aim of further developing and marketing ascos – a satellite positioning system.

Used right across Germany, the ascos satellite reference service provides highly accurate correction data for GPS and GLONASS positioning systems (GLONASS is the Russian satellite navigation system) as well as added value services and other co-ordinate-related facilities. AXIO-NET has some 700 customers from a range of industries, each requiring highly accurate positioning data quickly, securely, and economically.
