CHALLENGE

Before StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN) deployment, Město Přeštice faced a significant challenge with its existing IT infrastructure, relying on HP LeftHand storage and VMware ESXi hypervisor. The aging storage system lacked support, leading to frequent performance issues that hampered overall efficiency.
Being a public office and having the growing needs and problems of local residents, the institution was obliged to create a stable-running IT environment. Město Přeštice considered HPE StoreVirtual VSA, but it was too costly to deploy and scale, and difficult to manage.

SOLUTION

With StarWind VSAN, MěstoPřeštice got the chance to not only swiftly update the way its entire environment functions but also avoid heavy expenses on upgrading its outdated physical storage components. StarWind VSAN was installed into its existing nodes and created fault-tolerant storage with just two nodes. With StarWind, MěstoPřeštice experienced a substantial improvement in performance, eliminating the downtime and inefficiencies that had plagued them before. StarWind VSAN not only resolved existing challenges but also future-proofed the infrastructure, providing a scalable solution to meet evolving needs.
