Case Study: Priceline.com achieves halved time to deliver new services and avoids a costly data center expansion with Hewlett Packard Enterprise

Priceline.com - Customer Case Study

Priceline.com faced rapid year-over-year data growth and was running out of rack, power and cooling capacity while needing more development, QA and test environments. To avoid a costly data-center expansion, Priceline.com turned to Hewlett Packard Enterprise and adopted HP Converged Infrastructure components including HP 3PAR Adaptive Optimization, HP BladeSystem and VMware virtualization.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise implemented HP 3PAR storage with Adaptive Optimization, ProLiant/BladeSystem servers and VMware to virtualize and tier storage; the solution doubled compute density and storage utilization, shrank the hardware footprint by 65%, cut time to deliver new services in half, avoided a major data-center build and delivered seven years of continuous availability while accommodating growth without adding headcount.
