Case Study: MaximumASP achieves 100% network uptime with Brocade

MaximumASP Builds Virtualized Data Center with Brocade and Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V R2

MaximumASP, a Microsoft-centric hosting provider with more than 55,000 domains in 60 countries, needed a high-performance, highly reliable network to support its fully managed infrastructure and rapidly growing virtualized data center. The company wanted to stay ahead with cutting-edge services, eliminate outages, and find a partner that could support its virtualization strategy, so it turned to Brocade and Brocade networking solutions.

Brocade implemented a complete network infrastructure using BigIron RX at the core, FastIron edge and PoE switches at the rack level, ServerIron load balancers, SAN switches, and sFlow traffic analysis, all integrated with Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V R2. Brocade’s solution delivered 100 percent network uptime, wire-speed performance, more detailed bandwidth reporting, and cost savings through longer-lasting equipment, helping MaximumASP gain a competitive advantage and expand its business.
