Case Study: TELUS Studios and Creative Design achieves lower storage costs and real-time visibility with Qumulo

TELUS Studios Makes a Good Call, Replacing Fibre Channel Storage with Qumulo’s Data-Aware Scale-Out NAS

TELUS Studios and Creative Design, the corporate video and graphic design team for Canadian telecom TELUS, needed to replace expensive, hard-to-manage Fibre Channel storage that offered limited visibility and made capacity monitoring inefficient. The team wanted a more economical scale-out storage solution with a single dashboard and real-time insight into usage and performance, and chose Qumulo’s modern storage platform.

Qumulo implemented four QC24 hybrid storage appliances in a four-node NFS-based cluster, using Qumulo Care enterprise support and real-time analytics to simplify management and improve visibility. The migration was seamless, setup was extremely fast, and TELUS Studios reported lower costs, easier upgrades, better IT productivity, and instant insight into file and capacity usage, with the system proving reliable under testing and ready for further expansion.
