Case Study: City Furniture achieves hurricane-resilient cloud operations with Kyndryl

City Furniture scales on demand with Kyndryl across 4 cloud data centers

City Furniture, Inc., a leading Florida-based home furnishings retailer, faced a significant challenge protecting its business-critical operations and customer data from hurricane-related disruptions at its South Florida locations. Partnering with Kyndryl, the company sought a scalable, managed cloud solution to ensure network resiliency and support its mission-critical x86 environment.

Kyndryl implemented a solution by migrating City Furniture's systems to IBM Cloud, physically moving servers out of hurricane impact zones to multiple geographically separated data centers. This provided the retailer with enhanced data protection, around-the-clock support, and the scalable computing power needed for peak periods. As a result, City Furniture gained operational resilience and a platform for innovation, allowing its team to focus on deploying new cloud-based applications and AI capabilities to better serve customers.
