Case Study: Moser Holding achieves 24/7 reliable news delivery and scalable, high-availability infrastructure with VMware

Reliable News Every Day the Publisher Moser Holding Emphasizes Virtualization

Moser Holding is a leading Austrian publisher based in Innsbruck with a portfolio spanning newspapers, regional magazines, radio and online platforms and about 1,400 employees serving over 2 million daily readers and listeners. Facing real‑time, 24/7 news demands across multiple channels, rapid growth from acquisitions, distributed editorial offices and rising data volumes, the company needed a fail‑safe, scalable IT platform that ensured continuous operation, secure in‑house data storage and easy integration of new editorial departments.

Moser Holding moved to a VMware‑based virtual infrastructure (vSphere, Horizon VDI and a software‑defined data center) managed and monitored 24/7 by partner APA‑IT, creating a private cloud centrally administered from Innsbruck. The result is high availability with no missed editions, rapid recovery and on‑demand provisioning of virtual desktops and applications, centralized support for 13 sites (500 clients, 60 apps), improved security for ~50 TB of data, and the scalable foundation to add capacity and services as needed.
