Sponsored: We broke the 80% barrier to reach nearly total virtualization with NetApp

Under new leadership and a mandate to modernize, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) had successfully virtualized approximately 80% of its IT environment on VMware. But that’s where the innovation encountered an insurmountable roadblock: performance limitations and the upward-spiraling cost of legacy storage.

Under new leadership and a mandate to modernize, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) had successfully virtualized approximately 80% of its IT environment on VMware. But that’s where the innovation encountered an insurmountable roadblock: performance limitations and the upward-spiraling cost of legacy storage. Turning to all-flash storage from NetApp-SolidFire, CPUC virtualized that difficult last 20% of workloads — those with the highest IOPS — by winning the long-elusive trifecta of fast, reliable, and affordable storage that eliminates latency, performance degradation and the need for resources-intensive scale ups. Having overcome barriers to full virtualization, the agency runs its existing applications more efficiently, with better access and visibility, and deploys new ones that improve service to both internal and external customers.
