Bosch Security and Safety Systems delivers seamless security services to its clients by creating a highly available IT infrastructure around StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN)
Bosch Security and Safety Systems is a global supplier of security, safety, and communications solutions. The portfolio includes video surveillance, intrusion detection, and fire detection, as well as access control and management systems.
Before StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN) deployment, Bosch Security and Safety Systems struggled to deliver high availability (HA) for their well-known security and surveillance solution, the Bosch Building Integration System (BIS). Lack of HA shared storage led to downtime and potential failures, posing a risk to the reliability of a security and surveillance infrastructure. Traditional iSCSI or FC SAN shared storage is expensive and complex to configure.
The company needed a solution that offered HA without the associated high costs and complexity.
StarWind Virtual SAN was used to provide redundancy on just 2 nodes, reduce the overall cost of high availability infrastructure, lower power consumption, and build a Hyper-V failover cluster without a hardware SAN.

SOLUTION
By implementing StarWind VSAN, Bosch Security and Safety Systems provided a simple yet powerful solution for Bosch BIS redundancy and HA, maximizing performance. StarWind VSAN completely eliminated the need for expensive physical shared storage and seamlessly integrated with the Microsoft Hyper-V Failover Cluster, facilitating management processes.
StarWind allows Bosch BIS to run on high performance, low-cost, low-footprint, and energy efficient infrastructure. Overall, the successful integration of StarWind VSAN enabled the company to ensure continuous safety and security across critical infrastructures, including airports, defense installations, industrial sites, and healthcare facilities.
