The Challenge

Replication Capabilities

A global telecommunications company had recently migrated from a Lenel Enterprise OnGuard system to an Avigilon access control manager. The problem: Although the new system could synchronize data between five Avigilon appliances, it wasn’t able to replicate data between regional servers the way OnGuard had. The company needed a solution to create the same replication capabilities in its new ACM, automatically propagating people and credential changes between disparate systems.

The company also tasked Octeum with integrating its Workday HR system as a source of people-related data. When employee information was added or changed, it needed to automatically sync across five other PAC systems.

Required Services

Octeum was tasked with multiple objectives to help the Fortune 500 company meet its transition goals:

Consulting

  • Perform gap analysis on the destination PAC system based on prior migration work
  • Identify data synchronization between multiple Agivilon ACM appliances, a business-critical step in maintaining security operations

Managed Services

  • Coordinate deployment for incremental releases
  • Work with the client’s team project lead, system administrator, and director of security and safety to understand requirements, constraints and unique client-facing challenges

Security Software Solutions

  • Create sync solution that closes the gap between the company’s previous system and Avigilon ACM
  • Provide a full data sync solution
