CHALLENGE

Before StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN) deployment, the Psychiatric Hospital in Opava was grappling with limited resources in its IT infrastructure, comprising only three physical servers and storage. Operating on VMware hypervisor, it initially opted for an HPE ProLiant server-based hyperconverged infrastructure with internal disk capacity. However, this setup posed challenges in terms of scalability, data availability, and security, especially for its critical information systems.

Turning to its partner’s recommendation, the hospital embraced StarWind VSAN over the initially chosen HPE StoreVirtual VSA solution.

SOLUTION

The Psychiatric Hospital in Opava chose StarWind VSAN to enhance disk capacity and improve dataavailability and security. Its seamless integration with the VMware hypervisor ensured a smooth transition without disrupting ongoing operations.

The increased disk capacity empowered the hospital to accommodate new information systems with no hassle. Moreover, the improved data availability and security measures instilled confidence in its operations. The resulting infrastructure not only met but exceeded its requirements, ensuring reliable and efficient performance.
