Case Studies
Braathe Gruppen AS
To keep service levels high as demand for cloud computing continues to rise, IT services provider Braathe Gruppen replaced its traditional storage area network (SAN) system with cutting-edge software-defined storage technology. The solution is based on Microsoft Windows Server with Hyper-V and Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) running on Lenovo System x3650 M5 servers, equipped with powerful Intel® Xeon® E5 processors and Intel S3710 high-endurance SSDs.
The Lenovo Engineered Cloud Solution operates as a scalable, high-performance hyperconverged cloud, enabling Braathe Gruppen to deliver services with stability and resiliency while simplifying infrastructure provisioning and maintenance.

With operations growing and student numbers continuing to rise, Exeter College’s existing IT infrastructure couldn’t keep up. The college migrated its mission-critical applications on virtual servers to Lenovo Flex System – a flexible, easily-scalable platform powered by Intel® Xeon® that delivers high levels of performance – ensuring that student services run uninterrupted even as demand rises.

Parallels is helping companies of all sizes to reap the rewards of a VDI with its innovative, cost-effective solution, available on Lenovo Converged HX Series appliances powered by Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform software and Intel® Xeon® processors.
