CHALLENGE

Before deploying StarWind HCI Appliance (HCA), Greenwood Village South relied on aging physical servers running Hyper-V, which was challenging to maintain and manage. This outdated infrastructure posed risks of downtime and lacked scalability, making it difficult to meet the organization’s evolving needs.

Greenwood Village South sought a cost-effective solution that would provide high availability and scalability while avoiding vendor lock-in with proprietary hypervisors. Other tested solutions proved too expensive and limited flexibility, leaving the organization in need of a reliable and future- proof option.

StarWind HCI Appliance has worked flawlessly, reducing the time it takes to perform maintenance and greatly improving infrastructure uptime.
