Current environment

General

An insurance company, HABInsurance, operates in three states and provides home, auto, and boat insurance. Besides the head office, HABInsurance has three regional offices.



Technology assessment

The company has two Active Directory forests: main.habinsurance.com and region.habinsurance.com. HABInsurance's primary internal system is Insurance Processing System (IPS). It is an ASP.Net/C# application running on IIS/Windows Servers hosted in a data center. IPS has three tiers: web, business logic API, and a datastore on a back end. The company uses Microsoft SQL Server and MongoDB for the backend. The system has two parts: Customer data and Insurance forms and documents. Customer data is stored in Microsoft SQL Server and Insurance forms and documents ― in MongoDB. The company also has 10 TB of Human Resources (HR) data stored on NAS at the head office location.
