Client Spotlight:
STATE OF IOWA JUDICIAL BRANCH
JBIT has been a Zirous client for 20+ years. Zirous experts helped to unify JBIT’s court system and streamline their administrative organization in order to create a more uniform justice system. What was needed was a solution that was uniform throughout the entire state that also provided high availability and failover. A browser-based custom development application was determined to be the best solution due to the complexity. Zirous’ work included the architecture, design, implementation and roll out of a custom built solution that is now utilized by 100 courthouses.
While the initial development is complete, Zirous has remained in partnership with this client, working to enhance their system, develop additional custom features that ease their employees’ workload, and provide a substantial return on investment. Zirous’ development, infrastructure, and integration work has enabled JBIT’s ability to run different applications together successfully to ensure the most effective use of process and procedure.
As a result of the implementation, the client had an automated failover system that if one server went down, they could continue running on the other server. This gives them the ability to store, leverage, and protect their data. Zirous’ infrastructure enabled a solid foundation so that UIHC can continue to operate utilizing effective processes and procedure.
