Schneider Packaging Equipment boosts operational efficiency and productivity by building a virtualized IT environment with StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN)

CHALLENGE

Before deploying StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN), Schneider Packaging Equipment relied on an entirely physical infrastructure with Dell servers that brought about rising heat signatures. These servers not only posed a risk of hardware failure but also increased maintenance costs and drove up the company’s IT total cost of ownership (TCO). This situation was significantly limiting the company’s productivity and growth.

The company needed a solution that would address the heat signature issue and high maintenance costs while enhancing the efficiency of its IT infrastructure.

StarWind VSAN was easy to set up and deploy. It resulted in very high performance and high availability.

SOLUTION

Schneider Packaging Equipment selected StarWind VSAN because it enabled a seamless shift from physical servers to a virtualized environment. By implementing StarWind VSAN, Schneider Packaging Equipment was able to reduce costs associated with server maintenance and cooling and achieve high performance and high availability for its critical applications.

The transition to virtualization provided improved resource utilization and simplified management, which led to increased operational efficiency. This allowed the company to allocate resources better, reduce downtime, and ultimately focus more on its core business activities, driving productivity and growth.
