The department was able to replace two full racks of legacy gear in its primary data center with just three 2U SimpliVity OmniStack with Cisco UCS systems. The department also installed two additional OmniStack with Cisco UCS systems in a remote data center for the purposes of disaster recovery. With SimpliVity’s superior hyperconverged technology, the IT team at the Mississippi Department of Revenue is able to remotely backup and restore terabyte virtual machines in mere seconds, when it used to take hours with the previous solution. “We used to have to wait hours upon hours for backups of sizable VMs to complete. Now, backup and recovery operations are a breeze with SimpliVity,” said Patrick Welch, Network Services Manager, Mississippi Department of Revenue. “Not only does SimpliVity enable quick and high-quality performance, but it’s extremely easy to manage as well. Storage and backup expertise is not a prerequisite for spinning up IT services with SimpliVity.” Guelph Hydro Solves VDI Troubles with SimpliVity and Cisco As an Ontario-based utility company, Guelph Hydro is responsible for providing electricity to tens of thousands of homes and businesses in Canada. However, the company was forced to constantly field help desk calls from the internal users of its virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) because of disconnections, spotty service, and underperforming systems. When exploring options for how best to optimize its VDI environment, Guelph Hydro’s systems analyst, Adam Borecki, found that SimpliVity OmniStack with Cisco UCS was the perfect solution capable of delivering peak and predictable performance for users. “IT was constantly flooded with support tickets due to our VDI performance. We were doing the best we could to manage and make incremental improvements to the infrastructure, but we realized that we needed to find a better solution than a traditional SAN,” said Adam Borecki, systems analyst, Guelph Hydro. “SimpliVity with Cisco UCS has been the ideal solution for us. We were able to reduce our data center footprint, reduce power costs, and, most importantly, we haven’t received any more negative comments about the performance of our VDI implementation.”
