Case Study: The Sutton Group achieves higher IT performance and reduces hardware footprint with StarWind Software HCA All-Flash

StarWind HCA helped The Sutton Group to achieve higher IT infrastructure performance with less hardware to take care of

The Sutton Group (Wynsors), a footwear retailer and wholesaler operating more than 40 stores plus an e-commerce site, faced growing data volumes that strained an increasingly complex SAN. Performance issues were hard to troubleshoot, rack space was exhausted, and the IT team needed higher performance, simpler maintenance, and a smaller hardware footprint.

They deployed StarWind HyperConverged Appliance All‑Flash to consolidate compute and high‑performance storage. The move delivered noticeably better performance, reduced the physical footprint from a full rack to four units, and simplified management and troubleshooting by cutting the amount of hardware and connections to maintain.
