    • StarWind Success Story: Build a remotely managed IT infrastructure with StarWind

      Inflexion_1200x628.png

      Inflexion, a U.S.-based nonprofit consulting group, had a complex virtualization infrastructure with multiple servers and storage systems. This made it difficult for the sysadmin to manage and maintain. Using StarWind HCI Appliance (HCA), Inflexion implements a remotely supported and managed IT infrastructure with the possibility to run 50 VMs with no downtime, simplifies the management and maintenance of its virtualization environment, and cuts high IT operational expenses (OpEx)

    • StarWind Success Story: Replace your aging SAN devices with StarWind vSAN

      Disability Rights Texas_quote-banner_1200x628.png

      Disability Rights Texas, a U.S.-based non-profit agency, ran most of its production servers in the cloud, using a Hyper-V environment as a fallback. Its previous SAN provider was expensive, making the entire setup less cost-efficient and boosting maintenance costs. Using StarWind Virtual SAN (vSAN), Disability Rights Texas replaces its aging SAN with commodity servers, achieves scalability and redundancy, and cuts high IT operational expenses (OpEx).

    • VMware Horizon 8 2212: Apps on Demand for Published App Environments

      1.png

      VMware App Volumes is a part of VMware Horizon‘s Apps on Demand feature, which allows delivering apps to virtual desktops on demand. Instead of mounting VMDK with apps, dynamic mounting of the volumes starts only when you use an application. Now, Apps on Demand for published app environments extends this functionality to the apps published by Horizon Apps, Citrix Virtual Apps, and Microsoft Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH)/terminal.

      Read the article by Alex Samoylenko, a virtualization technology professional, to find out how to use Apps on Demand for published app environments to deliver published apps to virtual desktops on demand.

      Southeast Aerospace_1200x628.png

      Southeast Aerospace, a U.S.-based aviation and aerospace company, had an aging and cost-prohibitive virtualized infrastructure with a hindered scalability. The existing infrastructure didn't provide the performance needed to expand and support numerous critical servers.
