CHALLENGE

Before deploying StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN), AVR, Inc. had an issue with single, non-clustered Hyper-V servers that didn’t allow for high availability (HA). Although AVR explored other solutions, none provided the level of support and performance it required, prompting the decision to opt for StarWind VSAN.

The company needed to build an HA cluster using shared storage at a reasonable price, as its existing infrastructure could not meet these requirements.

Thanks to StarWind, we minimized our downtime and are very happy with the product.

SOLUTION

AVR, Inc. chose StarWind VSAN because it enabled the company to create a clustered environment with robust HA and redundancy functionalities. This implementation minimized downtime and significantly improved IT infrastructure operations.

Satisfied with the reliable performance and exceptional support from StarWind, AVR, Inc. now plans to continue using StarWind products for future deployments.
