Case Study: Workopolis doubles storage capacity, accelerates analytics and cuts costs with Hewlett Packard Enterprise HP 3PAR StoreServ

Workopolis - Customer Case Study

Workopolis, Canada’s leading online job site, faced rapidly growing data volumes and the need to ensure mission-critical website reliability and fast business‑intelligence analytics at controlled cost. To meet those requirements, Workopolis selected Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 storage solution for enterprise-grade, tiered storage and dynamic workload allocation.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise deployed three HP 3PAR StoreServ 7400 arrays (plus software suites and implementation services), enabling tiered SSD/HDD storage, dynamic workload movement, and simplified management. The deployment doubled Workopolis’s storage capacity, cut co‑location costs by CAD$60,000 per year (one cabinet retired), reduced report times from up to five hours to about one hour, and delivered high availability with no migration downtime—improving BI agility and website performance.
