A Nexenta Case Study
virtion GmbH is a German managed hosting provider (founded 2011) offering IaaS, server and storage virtualization, application management and backup services from two Frankfurt data centers hosting 200+ VMs. The company needed to deploy infrastructure quickly while keeping costs down and ensuring data availability, integrity, snapshotting and multi-protocol support (SAN, NFS, iSCSI) for diverse customer workloads.
virtion deployed NexentaStor 3.1.2 with the Simple HA plug-in on its own hardware, completing in-house setup in a single day. The result was faster, easier management, high availability and unlimited snapshots, twice-better SAN disk utilization, support for multiple protocols, about 50% less storage management time, roughly 60% lower storage costs versus alternatives, and elimination of vendor lock-in.
