Because of management simplicity and overall lower costs, we went to StarWind. The results are better
than expected; we have room to grow without compromising performance.

CHALLENGE
Before StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN) deployment, PROJECT Investment Group operated a two-hypervisor host cluster using VMware vSphere 6.7, coupled with two physical storage servers running a DataCore cluster. However, the existing storage solution was running extremely slowly and exhibiting signs of age. It also suffered from reliability issues, leading to concerns about data integrity and system uptime. The cost of maintaining and upgrading the existing infrastructure was substantial, making it challenging for the company to stay within the budget while meeting its IT requirements.
SOLUTION
PROJECT Investment Group has chosen StarWind VSAN to consolidate its compute and storage resources. Opting for a hyperconverged approach over separate storage and compute resources, the company achieved cost-efficiency and management simplicity. StarWind VSAN significantly improved storage performance, resolving DataCore’s reliability issues, and delivering faster data access. This transformation resulted also in substantial cost savings. The new infrastructure provided ample room for future growth, ensuring long-term scalability. With plans to deploy StarWind at its DR location, PROJECT Investment Group is further enhancing its disaster recovery capabilities.
