The Challenge
SwiftecIT, a small business in the computer services industry, was facing challenges with their existing IT infrastructure. They had a mandate to implement disaster recovery (DR) and improve backup/recovery. However, they found the management of multiple solutions and vendors to be manageable, but not ideal. The company was looking for a solution that could consolidate their data center, modernize their infrastructure, support Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), and handle production applications, test/dev, and QA.
The Solution
SwiftecIT chose to implement HPE SimpliVity Hyperconverged Infrastructure, specifically the OmniCube solution. 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 company uses the solution for data center consolidation/private cloud, infrastructure modernization/technology refresh, Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), production applications, test/dev, and QA. They run applications such as Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft SQL Server on the HPE SimpliVity Hyperconverged Infrastructure.
