The solution

So what were the tools that TechnoInfotech used to achieve the scalability to handle a mammoth and continuously growing volume of e-mails? “The system we have deployed is a customised implementation of PHPList integrated with a 20 SMTP server pool.

The total physical servers used are two. For creating a pool of 20 servers, we have used KVM virtualisation. The set-up makes use a 20 MBPS Internet circuit from our common pool. Our bulk mailing services deliver the best from the high volume SMTP gateway to ensure faster email delivery. In the process, our solution makes email marketing simpler, more effective and hassle-free for organisations. It enables them to fulfil their communication needs and eventually give their businesses a boost,” says Sanjay Gurav, a director at TechnoInfotech.

Manprit Singh adds, “For any organisation to grow and succeed, it is very important to cut down on the initial investments. We were able to do that with the help of open source technology. Besides, the service offered by TechnoInfotech is robust, efficient and comes with a lowmaintenance cost. In a nutshell, the open source product brought smiles to the faces of those on the IT team and inspired great confidence among all users.”

And did Dish TV migrate from any other platform to open source? “No, we always considered open source, even before deploying any solution across our organisation,” shares Singh.
