Case Study: Louisiana-Pacific Corporation achieves seamless cloud migration and resilient DRaaS with Flexential

Cloud services and DRaaS provide a solid foundation for building materials manufacturer

Louisiana-Pacific, a global leader in engineered wood products, moved from an on-premises IT environment after an ERP change and sought a reliable, secure partner to host its systems. After evaluating providers, the company selected Flexential for its more personal, consultative approach to cloud migration and managed services.

Flexential’s project team guided a near-seamless migration for roughly 2,300 users and implemented cloud hosting plus DRaaS, replacing tape-based recovery and eliminating single points of failure. By the end of 2016 Louisiana-Pacific had a high-performance hybrid environment with improved backups, scalable compute and storage, flexible billing, strong uptime, and ongoing quarterly reviews—benefits that freed budget to improve customer digital experiences.
