VCA Consultants selected Reduxio’s technology through reseller channel partner MR2 Solutions, Inc. and will be using Reduxio’s enterprise hybrid storage array to help the firm simplify and streamline its IT environment in order to react to cyclical market forces and business demands and increase productivity.

California’s residential and commercial real estate market continues to thrive, as prices remain at near peak levels, with limited inventory and low-interest rates playing in its favor, according to the California Realtor Association. To address these market demands, VCA Consultants uses Building Information Models (BIM) and 3D Modeling projects and has pioneered the use of AutoCAD REVIT in structural design. As the design software applications that VCA uses require significant amounts of storage capacity and put a lot of performance demand on storage, it turned to Reduxio to help its IT infrastructure.

VCA is known for leading edge solutions to enable architects and developers to build more creatively and cost effectively,” said David Briski, IT manager, VCA Consultants. “We are always exploring ways to enhance the performance of our IT infrastructure to better serve our clients. Reduxio’s technology allows VCA to offer its clients the latest advances in 3-D modeling and provide stable and reliable professional services while improving productivity, continuously protecting its data from losses, automating backup and recovery and containing costs.”

To improve performance, Reduxio’s HX550 storage was installed and configured for VMware ESXi 6. Virtual servers and desktops were migrated from a previous spinning disk system to a flash storage solution with in-line, in-memory de-duplication and compression. Reduxio’s BackDating solution allows fine-grain recovery of VMs and databases to protect VCA from data loss in the event of an outage or a malware attack.

Our solution is able to seamlessly integrate with VCA Consultants’ current storage environment, maximizing its current investment while reducing the risks to critical structural design data associated with previous 24-hour backup cycles and spinning disks,” said Mike Grandinetti, chief marketing and corporate strategy officer, Reduxio. “We’re proud to be working with our reseller partner MR2 Solutions, who have a demonstrated expertise in applying next generation storage and data center technologies on behalf of its clients. We’ve worked together to help transform VCA Consultants’ storage environment to be more cost-effective, while improving performance and user productivity.

Traditional storage solutions have become increasingly complex and expensive to deploy in an environment like VCA Consultants’ with constantly changing working set and large data sets,” said Ron Salazar, president, MR2 Solutions. “To reduce the complexity and streamline operations we chose Reduxio’s solution, which provides the added benefit of easily integrating with existing tools, resulting in significant savings.
