CHALLENGE

Before deploying StarWind HCI Appliance (HCA), the client company of Interface IT Solutions Group LTD had a Windows Server environment with a physical SAN and VMware ESXi on top. The existing IT infrastructure was fragmented and lacked a solid foundation to consolidate the server structure for its field operations.

Despite considering virtual SANs, the client company faced complexities with VMware, hindering seamless integration and high availability (HA). It considered EMC and Nutanix as possible solutions, but the price and the minimum number of nodes required to create a failover cluster tipped the balance in favor of StarWind.

StarWind products have been very reliable and we will continue to look for opportunities to leverage their products and services.

SOLUTION

Interface IT Solutions Group LTD has chosen StarWind HCI Appliance as it offers consolidation of memory, compute, and storage resources, addressing the fragmented infrastructure s challenges. Moreover, its high availability, monitoring, and cost effectiveness ensured an optimal solution without compromise.

StarWind HCI Appliance enabled a seamless 2- node cluster with synchronous failover, meeting the client s requirements for HA. Interface IT Solutions Group LTD expresses satisfaction with the hardware cost and the proven technology underlying StarWind solution.
