A Hitachi Data Systems Case Study
Cigniti Technologies, a fast-growing software testing services company, was struggling with a sprawling and fragmented IT environment after multiple acquisitions. Its servers, storage, and applications were spread across different systems, making provisioning, troubleshooting, utilization, and performance management difficult and costly. Cigniti needed a single-pane, converged platform to simplify management and support continued growth, and turned to Hitachi Data Systems for help.
Hitachi Data Systems implemented Hitachi Unified Compute Platform for VMware vSphere, using Hitachi Compute Blade 500 and Hitachi Unified Storage 100, with services from Hitachi Data Systems Global Solution Services. The deployment was completed in less than a week and gave Cigniti centralized management, better reliability, improved provisioning and performance, and stronger scalability. The result was lower administration and data center costs, faster testing and provisioning, and improved customer service, with reduced time spent on troubleshooting and higher infrastructure utilization.
