Case Study: Global Datacenter Consolidation
Industry: Services
December 11, 2018
Key Business Impact
Before & After
Before: 14 fragmented global datacenters with high latency. After: 3 ultra-efficient regional hubs.
Quantified Metrics
- Network latency reduced by 40%
- Hardware footprint reduced by 65%
Cost Savings & ROI
$8.5M annual savings in power, cooling, and real estate.
Security Enhancements
Unified SD-WAN and standardized firewall policies globally.
Case Study: Global Datacenter Consolidation
Client Profile: A multinational manufacturing enterprise.
The Gap: Server Sprawl
Decades of acquisitions left the enterprise with 14 disparate datacenters scattered globally. Hardware was severely underutilized (running at 15% capacity), maintenance costs were skyrocketing, and network routing was wildly inefficient.
The Solution: Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI)
TechnoPlanet architects designed a consolidation strategy. We migrated their workloads to Nutanix HCI, collapsing compute, storage, and networking into a fraction of the physical footprint, and consolidated the 14 sites down to 3 strategic regional hubs.
The Results: Lean and Fast
The massive reduction in physical hardware slashed utility and real estate costs. SD-WAN implementation dramatically improved application performance for end-users across all continents.
