Case Study: NEC achieves faster, compliant cloud migration and disaster recovery with RackWare

NEC - Customer Case Study

The customer, NEC, needed to migrate a large enterprise client's 50-server environment to its IaaS cloud in the secure Iron Mountain data center. The challenge was to perform this complex migration with zero downtime and ensure future disaster recovery capabilities, all while moving away from a non-compliant, legacy on-premise infrastructure that was causing high latency for users.

The vendor, RackWare, implemented its RMM software platform to automate and simplify the migration and disaster recovery process. The solution reduced the migration time from an estimated 20 weeks to just 5 days, saving 760 hours of labor and $95,000 in admin costs. This resulted in a total migration cost savings of 70%, or $1,400 per server. Furthermore, NEC's client was able to implement a disaster recovery solution at one-tenth the cost of traditional options while significantly improving user experience and achieving regulatory compliance.
