Case Study: Staples Solutions reduces data center costs and boosts agility with HPE Simplivity

Staples Solutions Becomes Leaner With a Powerful and Scalable It Infrastructure

Staples Solutions, a major European provider of office supplies, faced the challenge of managing six outsourced data centers that all used different solutions. This inefficient setup was difficult and costly to manage. To become leaner and more efficient, the company needed to consolidate its infrastructure into two facilities and move to an on-premises solution with the help of vendor HPE Simplivity.

Staples chose HPE Synergy with HPE Nimble Storage for its data centers and HPE SimpliVity for its branch offices. This new HPE infrastructure led to significant results, including a 50% reduction in annual data center costs and a 40% faster delivery of new products and services. The vendor's solutions also improved scalability and redundancy while reducing hardware incidents by 30%.
