Miami Cuts Costs by More Than 50 Percent, Maintains Performance, with Move to Windows

“The bottom line is that we do a better job of saving lives because we migrated our system from the mainframe to .NET. And that’s what it’s all about.”

Kevin Burns
Information Systems Manager for the City of Miami Fire-Rescue Department

The mainframe-based emergency fire and medical dispatch system in Miami was increasingly difficult and costly to maintain, and to expand with new capabilities. So the city migrated its existing software to Windows Server® and the Microsoft® .NET Framework. Now, the city dispatches emergency services without loss of speed or performance, while it saves U.S. $350,000 a year—more than 50 percent of previous costs—on maintenance.
