One of Pulsant’s most strategic offerings is its cloud storage service, especially in light of the growing demand amongst mid-tier and enterprise customers to outsource some or all of their storage infrastructure. Pulsant was looking for an alternative storage solution to run alongside and eventually replace its more traditional tier-1 storage-based system. The company wanted to provide a more cost-effective service in order to position itself more competitively while retaining the high service quality and availability that its customers were accustomed to and required.
“Our InfiniBox systems provide an excellent balance between ease of operation, enterprise-class features, availability, performance and cost. As such, the solution is exactly what we were looking for”, said Russel Ridgley, head of cloud services, Pulsant. “The low TCO allows us to position ourselves aggressively from a commercial point of view. The flawless reliability of the system means we can meet our strict SLAs with our customers. And the management simplicity helps us to easily service a large number of very different customers and maintain several hundred directly connected devices and volumes without any problems.”
