Case Study: Etablissement Francais du Sang achieves 75%+ application performance gains and 100:1–200:1 capacity savings with HPE SimpliVity

Etablissement Francais du Sang - Customer Case Study

Etablissement Francais du Sang, a medium-sized French healthcare organization, needed to modernize and scale its infrastructure after a capacity purchase and platform review. Managing multiple solutions and vendors was workable but not ideal, and the organization wanted a simpler, more reliable platform to support VDI, production applications (Oracle, Exchange, SQL, SharePoint) and test/dev workloads.

They deployed HPE SimpliVity OmniCube hyperconverged infrastructure to consolidate compute, storage, backup and data services under a single console. The result was >75% improved application performance, 100:1–200:1 capacity savings, deployment and configuration time reduced to a day (from up to a week), and realized value within one week; inline deduplication/compression, VM‑centric vCenter management and the hyperconverged appliance were rated extremely valuable.
