Case Study: Kriska Transportation Group accelerates growth and disaster recovery with Nutanix HCI-as-a-Service

Kriska Transportation Group integrates acquisitions 75% faster with Nutanix

Kriska Transportation Group, a Canadian trucking and logistics firm, faced significant IT challenges due to its rapid growth and the critical need for real-time data tracking. Their legacy infrastructure struggled with scalability and suffered from a multi-day outage during a failed disaster recovery test. To support its 24/7 operations and numerous acquisitions, Kriska needed a modern, reliable, and scalable IT solution. They turned to vendor Nutanix and their partner Zycom for a hybrid cloud infrastructure as a service solution.

The solution implemented by Nutanix, through partner Zycom, was a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) as a service platform. This provided Kriska with a scalable and agile hybrid cloud environment that dramatically improved their disaster recovery capabilities and supported business growth. The measurable results were substantial: Kriska was able to integrate acquired companies 75% faster with only 25% of the previous effort required. Nutanix's solution also provided cost containment, estimated at over 40% savings compared to public cloud options, while ensuring IT was no longer a bottleneck for the business.
