Going from “classical” disaggregated IT infrastructure to a hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) can be a scary experience. For YP, the 133-year old company that created the original Yellow Pages, an HCI implementation to replace their legacy NetApp SAN and servers had a lot of appeal because of the promise of simpler and more agile management and lower costs. However, whatever they chose had to work – YP had over 60TB of digital content and 10,000 corporate users. YP needed a storage solution that could meet today’s needs, easily scale to meet tomorrow’s needs, and eventually provide a converged computing/storage solution that lowered their operational costs. YP turned to Microsoft and DataON for their solution. In a two-phase solution, YP deployed DataON’s CIB-9124 hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) solution and storage that allowed them to 10X better SQL server performance for lower CapEx and OpEx costs.
