Case Study: Lanx achieves scalable, high-performance SAP and resilient disaster recovery with Virtustream xStream

LANX - Customer Case Study

Lanx, a fast‑growing U.S. spinal implant company, needed a flexible, scalable and reliable IT platform to replace an aging on‑premises data center that was running out of storage, nearing server end‑of‑life, lacked disaster recovery, and would have required significant CapEx to refresh. The company also wanted outsourced SAP Basis and security support and a partner able to accelerate migration while enabling a shift from CapEx to predictable OpEx.

Lanx selected Freeborders and Virtustream’s xStream private cloud to migrate its SAP, reporting and analytics environments—completing the move in eight weeks with reporting live at day 35. The migration included OS, database and SAP kernel upgrades and delivered a 20–50% improvement in SAP transaction performance, a 99.999% SLA, disaster recovery with 15‑minute RPO/1‑hour RTO, lower upfront costs and predictable monthly fees, and freed internal IT to focus on strategic initiatives.
