Sun Peaks Resort ensures uninterrupted guest services and operational stability by creating a hyperconverged IT environment with StarWind HCI Appliance (HCA)

CHALLENGE

Before introducing StarWind HCI Appliance (HCA) into its IT infrastructure, Sun Peaks Resort relied on Hyper-V clusters managed with Microsoft Storage Spaces Direct (S2D). However, S2D proved to be unintuitive, making management, maintenance, and troubleshooting more complex than expected.

The resort needed a reliable, high-performance solution that would simplify storage management without compromising stability.

StarWind works great, every time I’ve needed help StarWind support has been awesome. All of our future clusters will likely be StarWind.

Having previously used StarWind’s tools for virtual machine (VM) conversion with flawless results, Sun Peaks Resort chose StarWind HCI Appliance to overhaul its infrastructure. The solution delivered intuitive storage management, improved performance, and ensured high availability for critical workloads.
Every time assistance was needed, StarWind ProActive Premium Support provided fast and effective solutions, reinforcing confidence in the deployment.

The resort now enjoys a hassle-free, robust infrastructure and plans to standardize all future clusters on StarWind for its reliability, simplicity, and outstanding customer support.
