Case Study: Daboula achieves constant uptime and reduced hardware footprint with StarWind VSAN (StarWind Software)

Daboula creates a failover cluster at reduced hardware footprint and ensures constant uptime with StarWind

Daboula is a Congolese IT implementer and Microsoft-focused consultant that helps customers deploy information systems and telecommunications. The company needed uninterrupted operation but was running a failover cluster on aging, networked physical storage that required redundant hardware across different servers; with only two physical servers available, Daboula faced a risk of downtime and lacked a cost-effective replication and failover solution.

Daboula deployed StarWind Virtual SAN, chosen for its simple management and replica logic, which enabled storage replication on the two existing servers and eliminated the need to buy a third. The VSAN delivered high availability and guaranteed storage redundancy, allowed the same servers to serve the failover cluster, and reduced hardware footprint and underutilization—outcomes the company cites as meeting its objectives, alongside positive support from StarWind.
