News Corp Australia achieves improved operational efficiency and reduces IT overhead by simplifying storage management with StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN)

CHALLENGE

Before implementing StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN), News Corp Australia’s IT infrastructure relied on traditional storage solutions that posed several operational inefficiencies. Its environment was built on VMware ESXi, but managing direct storage was a cumbersome and time-consuming process. The complexity of the existing setup made even routine upgrades and changes difficult, often requiring manual intervention and causing service disruptions. These challenges hindered IT agility and responsiveness, making it increasingly hard to scale the infrastructure without risking downtime.

StarWind VSAN is easier to manage and upgrade.
