Case Study: Kiesling Associates achieves faster, more efficient virtualized SAN storage with Tegile

Kiesling Virtualizes Applications and Migrates to SAN With Tegile for CapEx and OpEx Savings

Kiesling Associates LLP, a multi-service accounting and financial consulting firm, was struggling with rapid growth in archive, email, and database workloads on a legacy EMC-based, all-physical infrastructure. The company needed a storage solution that could improve performance, support future expansion, and reduce the capital and operational costs tied to overprovisioned servers and storage.

Tegile implemented a hybrid storage SAN that enabled Kiesling Associates to move to a fully virtualized environment for all applications, with better IOPS/latency, built-in data management, and easier capacity planning. With Tegile, Kiesling achieved 42% storage space optimization through compression and deduplication, improved user experience with faster data transfers, and cut CapEx and OpEx by reducing the need for larger servers and extra infrastructure.
