Case Study: Tekla Corp achieves 100% virtualization and 99% operational efficiency with Dell EMC

Tekla Corp - Customer Case Study

Tekla Corp, a developer of 3-D model–based software for construction, infrastructure, and energy projects, needed higher data availability, performance, scalability, and faster time to market to support heavy-duty BIM applications and mission-critical systems like SAP, SharePoint, Exchange, SQL and CRM. To meet these demands, Tekla selected Dell EMC unified storage (including VNXe and CLARiiON platforms) together with VMware virtualization technologies.

Dell EMC implemented integrated unified storage and VMware-based virtualization, enabling Tekla to virtualize 100 percent of its applications and run 400 virtual machines on EMC platforms. The deployment delivered measurable benefits: near-continuous 24x7 availability, rapid VM provisioning in minutes, SAP virtualization completed in a day, the ability to manage 400 servers with limited staff, and an overall 99 percent operational efficiency while improving performance, scalability, and time to market.
