Case Study: Zayo achieves rapid, guaranteed high-performance big data hosting with Hewlett Packard Enterprise 3PAR StoreServ 7450

Zayo gains advantage with HPE 3PAR StoreServ 7450

Zayo, a leading hosting and data center solutions provider, needed high‑performance, multi‑tenant storage to support growing big data customers that demand guaranteed performance and rapid provisioning. After a competitive evaluation Zayo selected Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s HPE 3PAR StoreServ 7450 all‑flash array to meet those requirements.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise implemented the HPE 3PAR StoreServ 7450 with features such as HPE 3PAR Priority Optimization and thin provisioning, enabling guaranteed SLAs, multi‑tenant isolation, and API integration for faster workflows. The deployment cut provisioning from days to hours, saved about 80 IT staff hours per new customer, delivered significant capacity savings (HPE guarantees 50% reduction and Zayo reports up to 4:1 effective savings), and helped Zayo win and retain customers while lowering operational costs.
