In our latest Customer Case Study, see how a large European Bank engaged Linakis.digital to implement Sitecore with SearchStax Managed Solr to create a better customer experience.
Editor’s Note: Managed Solr is now SearchStax Cloud. It is the same great product that lets developers set up and deploy Solr infrastructure in minutes.
Over the last 30 years, a large European financial services company has shaped the banking trends, developed an extensive branch and alternative banking network, and is known for award-winning innovation.
To maintain their competitive advantage, they initiated a project with Greece-based Linakis.digital to develop a new highly automated website to let them focus on creating high-performance customer experiences.
One of the biggest digital challenges for the new website would be to successfully handle the large number of expected queries on the new Sitecore website without burdening inhouse engineers to manage and support the Solr search infrastructure. Another top requirement was that the website deployment had to have 24x7x365 support for the Solr search infrastructure.
Linakis.digital proposed to set up the website using Sitecore 9 on the Azure Platform as a Service as it was deemed to be the best platform to meet the bank’s strategic objectives. As a trusted IT and development expert, Linakis was also tasked with building out the infrastructure for the deployment which included servers, virtual machines, operating system and Solr search.
Linakis identified and recommended the Managed Solr solution from SearchStax because they recognized the importance of Solr to the bank’s Sitecore implementation and they wanted an expert to be in charge of deploying, managing and scaling the critical Solr infrastructure.
There were three key benefits of the SearchStax partnership:
Linakis worked with the bank to extend their search solution with contextualization features to reach its full potential.
The bank’s Sitecore website offers cross-channel content management and delivery, unparalleled performance and scalability, enterprise-class security, omnichannel automation marketing plans and a single, centralized view of website visitors to enable personalization.
In addition, using SearchStax Managed Solr solution with Sitecore:
“SearchStax was easy to set up and freed up the time of our experts to work on more strategic projects.”
