HP
HP collaborated with MIS to design and implement the HP MSA1000 SAN at the headquarters of the South
Midlands division of Johnston Press. Working with Paul Earl, the divisional IT Manager, and other members
of the Johnston Press management team, MIS and HP were able to build a highly resilient, powerful and
scaleable server platform to run the Miles 33 ad booking application, FutureProof.
Automatrix
MIS worked with Automatrix to build a robust Apple OSX server platform providing the optimum
environment for their automated ad creation application, AdActive. MIS then implemented a Virtual
Private Network to distribute AdActive efficiently and cost effectively to nationwide offices.

communications partner in the following projects:

With Internet presence being a 'must have' for our clients, particularly those in the communications
business, and with email now being mission critical, MIS needed a reliable Internet Service Provider to partner
with to deliver complete solutions to our clients.
FastNet International is that partner. Recommended to MIS by a client some years ago, FastNet quickly proved
why they are so deserving of the 'Best Small Business ISP of the Year' award in both 2003 and 2004.
The team at FastNet is knowledgeable and accessible; both highly important qualities that help MIS deliver
'joined up' support and services to our clients quickly and effectively.
