London-Based Carrenza Supports Evolving Customer Application and Infrastructure Demands

With NetApp SolidFire

Our customers depend on us to deliver a high-performance infrastructure that never goes down,” said Matthew McGrory, MD, Carrenza Ltd. “No one else that we know of in the UK market is putting ink to paper and saying, ‘We will give you a service credit if we don’t perform to the level required.’ That’s how confident we are, thanks to NetApp SolidFire all-flash storage.

carrenza-solidfireBased in London, Carrenza is a cloud service company that provides infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS) to customers that range from government agencies to retailers and financial-services firms. Carrenza has expertise in public-cloud integration, supporting customers that use AWS, VMware vCloud Air, and Microsoft Azure.

Carrenza turned to NetApp, Inc. and implemented the SolidFire all-flash storage system to increase infrastructure agility and responsiveness, while reducing storage maintenance time and administration effort. As a result, customers can scale storage resources without up-front capital expenses. The scalability and agility frees customers from unnecessary up-front costs and allows them to plan ahead for performance or capacity changes.

SolidFire all-flash storage systems streamline operations by consolidating workloads onto a single system that promotes performance to thousands of applications that run side by side. It provides predictable performance with fine-grained QoS, instant provisioning, and automatic load balancing, all with the ability to adjust resources dynamically. Through its REST-based API, SolidFire integrates with Carrenza’s VMware vCloud management and virtualization software.

With its new solution, Carrenza has:

  • Enabled the GOV.UK website to deliver critical services to its citizens.
  • Gained the confidence of Fourth, Inc., a supplier of enterprise resource planning software for the hospitality industry. Fourth relies on Carrenza’s flexible IaaS environment to provide a scalable software-as-a-service platform while remaining cost-effective and reliable.
  • Enabled CommuniGator Ltd, a marketing automation specialist, to double the number of its customers without doubling its infrastructure.
