Proact IT Group announced that it has been selected by Saffier De Residentiegroep to supply a hyperconverged data centre solution. The new IT infrastructure will bring Saffier De Residentiegroep significant savings in terms of hardware and operating costs and the alternative environment will reduce the risks. The complete solution consists of three SimpliVity Omnicubes, including a disaster recovery environment.

The hyperconverged systems will give Saffier De Residentiegroep more control over its IT environment and simplify its management the VMware centric approach, as well as lower the risk due to the back-up component that is integrated into the solution. These savings will reportedly be made for over 20% of hardware and over 40% of operating costs, such as licenses for VMware, storage, power and cooling.
