A HPE Simplivity Case Study
SwiftecIT, a mid-sized Boston-area systems integrator and regional cloud provider, faced rising demand for cloud services from SME customers while struggling with legacy infrastructure that hindered scalability, increased operational complexity, and limited backup, HA and DR capabilities. To compete with large cloud providers and support 24x7 uptime, the company needed lower TCO, incremental scalability, and a simpler management model.
SwiftecIT deployed a two-site SimpliVity OmniCube Federation as the foundation for its private cloud and public cloud offering, consolidating internal and customer VMs on a single platform. The solution delivered VM-level backups, global deduplication/compression to cut WAN use, fast RTO/RPO, simplified management through vCenter (staff trained in under 30 minutes), and easy scale-out—resulting in improved uptime, cost savings, rapid recovery, and the ability to migrate customers and accelerate growth.
