Case Study: PostFinance achieves scalable, cost-effective big data storage with Cloudian HyperStore

PostFinance cuts Splunk TCO by up to 60% with Cloudian

PostFinance, a leading Swiss financial institution, faced the challenge of managing its big data without a cost-effective and scalable storage solution for its analytics platform. They chose Cloudian's HyperStore object storage to replace their traditional block and file storage, seeking to retain and analyze more data.

The solution involved deploying Cloudian HyperStore appliances across two data centers. This provided PostFinance with limitless scalability and full S3 compatibility. The implementation enabled integration with Splunk SmartStore, which decoupled compute and storage to achieve up to a 60% TCO reduction. According to PostFinance, the Cloudian solution allowed them to retain more data for deeper insights while significantly cutting costs.
