Case Study: Queensland Tissue Products reduces storage running costs and ensures high availability with StarWind Software vSAN

Queensland Tissue Products reduces the running costs for storage systems by adopting hyperconvergence with StarWind vSAN

Queensland Tissue Products, a Brisbane-based manufacturer of toilet tissue, facial tissue, kitchen towels and napkins, faced rising costs and complexity from running numerous physical Dell servers with Hyper-V and maintaining separate NAS for VM infrastructure. The IT team needed an affordable virtual shared storage solution to reduce server count and guarantee redundancy without inflating maintenance overhead.

They implemented StarWind Virtual SAN (vSAN), which enabled a highly available environment with a minimal hardware footprint, eliminated most servers, and removed the need for separate NAS maintenance. As a result, the company lowered storage running costs, achieved 24/7 uptime and redundancy, and plans to continue using StarWind going forward.
