Case Study: Namecheap boosts hosting density and reliability with StorPool Storage

Namecheap deploys 20% more servers per rack with StorPool

Namecheap, a global hosting provider and domain retailer, faced challenges with its legacy bare-metal infrastructure, including 'noisy neighbour' issues, service disruptions, and single points of failure. To build a next-generation hyper-converged cloud that improved reliability and increased workload density, they partnered with vendor StorPool to implement its primary storage platform.

The solution involved deploying StorPool Storage on hyper-converged clusters using AMD EPYC processor-based servers. This provided Namecheap with a fast, reliable storage solution that consumes minimal resources. The results included a 60% increase in applications per cluster, a 20% increase in servers per rack, and the elimination of service downtimes. StorPool's fully-managed service also offloaded storage maintenance from Namecheap's team.
