Case Study: Telestream eliminates MS Exchange timeouts with Condusiv V-locity I/O reduction software

Telestream boosts application performance 50% and ends Exchange timeouts with Condusiv Technologies

Telestream, an American provider of video software and hardware, faced significant performance issues within their virtualized environment. Their mission-critical applications, including MS Exchange and SQL Server, became progressively slower, leading to Exchange users timing out and getting disconnected during peak loads. The challenge was an I/O problem overwhelming their infrastructure, which they addressed by deploying Condusiv Technologies' V-locity I/O reduction software.

The solution from Condusiv, V-locity (now called DymaxIO), streamlined I/O traffic by eliminating small, fractured writes and utilizing available server memory for caching. This implementation resolved the root cause of the performance issues. The results were immediate: MS Exchange timeouts disappeared entirely, and Telestream achieved a 50% boost in application performance across their most I/O-intensive workloads without needing additional hardware.
