CHALLENGE

Before implementing StarWind HCI Appliance (HCA), Kelly Aerospace had relied on a small, aging PC-based server farm that had grown without a plan. Over the years, hardware was added piece by piece, creating an environment with no redundancy and no dependable backup. The infrastructure ran on Hyper-V, but the outdated servers could no longer keep up with business demands.

As the company continued to grow, any hardware failure could lead to downtime and data loss. Replacing the existing setup with a scalable solution was necessary. Kelly Aerospace started looking at the StarWind solution as a way to move forward.

With StarWind HCI Appliance, everything works like a dream, and when I do have issues, support is there for me. StarWind software and systems are great and all, but the Support and the knowledge they possess are way above par.

SOLUTION

Kelly Aerospace chose StarWind HCI Appliance because it replaced the old PC-based servers with a modern, fault-tolerant platform that was easy to deploy and manage. Instead of assembling different hardware and software pieces, the company received a turnkey solution built for growth and high availability. The Hyper-V environment was preserved, but the infrastructure behind it became stable and futureready.

The IT department no longer worries about complex maintenance or unexpected failures. When an issue does appear, StarWind ProActive Premium Support responds quickly and effectively. Kelly Aerospace now has confidence that its IT infrastructure can keep pace with business expansion without adding complexity or cost.
