About The Customer
The Alberta Union of Provincial Employees is a membership organization based in Canada. The organization was in the process of a capacity purchase/upgrade of their existing infrastructure. They were managing multiple solutions and vendors without any major issues. However, they decided to review their overall platform and consider new solutions. They were running various types of applications including Microsoft SQL Server, Dynamics, Zimbra, and Cherwell.
The Challenge
The Alberta Union of Provincial Employees was in the process of a capacity purchase/upgrade of their existing infrastructure. This led to an overall platform review. Prior to deploying HPE SimpliVity Hyperconverged Infrastructure, the organization found the management of multiple solutions and vendors to be a non-issue. However, they decided to move forward with the HPE SimpliVity Hyperconverged Infrastructure for data center consolidation and infrastructure modernization.
The Solution
The Alberta Union of Provincial Employees decided to deploy the HPE SimpliVity Hyperconverged Infrastructure. This technology brings all IT infrastructure and data services below the hypervisor into a single compact data center appliance. The HPE SimpliVity 380, based on the world’s best-selling server, is a compact, scalable building block that delivers server, storage, backup and DR in a 2U appliance. The organization used the HPE SimpliVity OmniCube for data center consolidation and infrastructure modernization. The solution includes built-in backup and bandwidth-efficient replication to help ensure data integrity and availability.
