RATP opts for Bull SafeKit software to monitor the line 1 Paris Metro

Even in the event of failure, thanks to this solution, control room operators still need to have access to network information and images in order to ensure continuity of service.

The Parisian Transport Authority RATP has opted for safeKit software from Bull for your centralized control room on the Line 1 of the Metro the French capital. This solution monitors critical issues in applications that are vital to the business and cannot, therefore, be subject to the slightest inactivity. The solution has the added advantage that it runs on systems that are already in place. Even in the event of failure, control room operators still need to have access to network information and images in order to ensure continuity of service and security of the 725.000 passengers who travel daily on this line.

Bull SafeKit thus ensures monitoring 24×7, thanks to backups of servers that are ready to take over, immediately, at all times. Another feature is load balancing as the application is capable of supporting a large number of simultaneous connections.

On the other hand, and since not all servers are hosted in the same place, the system is protected against fire or flooding, For example.

SafeKit is one of the few solutions that offer automatic load balancing and failover after an incident with real-time replication of data (for high availability and disaster resilience).

Twenty SafeKit groups run on Windows and Linux to ensure full reliability of Metro network monitoring.
