Case Study: Palmaz Vineyards achieves high-performance virtual machine storage and protection with Synology

Palmaz Vineyards handles 70% of data requests with Synology

Palmaz Vineyards, a family-owned Napa Valley winery, faced a significant challenge in storing and analyzing the vast amounts of time-sensitive data generated by its proprietary winemaking software, FILCS. Using cloud services led to high latency, making critical computations irrelevant by the time they were processed, and resulted in spiraling monthly fees. They turned to Synology Inc. for a high-performance storage solution to handle their data onsite.

Synology implemented an onsite solution using its FlashStation and RackStation NAS devices. This provided the high-performance IOPS needed for virtualization, allowing FILCS to compute solutions instantly with no latency bottlenecks. The winery now owns its large data pools at a dramatically lower cost, ensuring all data is readily available, accurate, and relevant for analysis, which allows its machine learning systems to continue to learn and evolve.
