Case Study: TECHnalysis Research achieves high-performance, reliable VDI with Pivot3

TECHnalysis Research - Customer Case Study

Pivot3, a provider of hyper‑converged infrastructure, addresses the challenges enterprises face when deploying Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI). VDI demands low‑latency networking, high‑performance storage to avoid “boot storms” and queued I/O, plus simplified configuration and rock‑solid reliability—areas where traditional data‑center resources often fall short.

Pivot3’s solution bundles compute, storage and networking into a preconfigured hyper‑converged appliance running the vSTAC OS, delivering SAN‑like performance with only about 7% CPU overhead. The result is higher VDI density (in some cases up to twice as many sessions per box), easier single‑console management, turnkey deployment with partners like VMware, and improved reliability and scalability for VDI rollouts.
