Case Study: Acquity Group achieves secure innovation and reduces disk requirements by more than 80% with Rackspace Technology

Rackspace Advisory Services allow Acquity Group to innovate securely, keeping its enterprise clientele on the cutting edge

Acquity Group is a Chicago-based brand commerce and digital marketing firm that serves Fortune 1000 clients and has been named Ad Age’s Top Digital Agency. The company needed scalable, secure infrastructure and ongoing support to maximize resources, protect sensitive client data, and keep its e-commerce and content-management offerings innovative as it grew.

Working with Rackspace Advisory Services, Acquity moved to a mix of dedicated, cloud and hybrid hosting and a virtualized private-cloud environment, and implemented a NetApp NAS–based storage strategy for Adobe CQ. The solution reduced disk requirements by more than 80%, supported over 250 devices, kept client environments secure with zero breaches or downtime during major attacks, and gave Acquity the operational support to focus on delivering new applications and services.
