The client is inventing the future of finance by revolutionizing how data is used to shape thinking. In line with that philosophy, the client selected the Pavilion HFA to power their next gen SQL Server based applications.

By moving to a disaggregated solution, the VC firm was also able to reduce the processing impact of their previous environment by up to 30%, freeing those compute resources to be reallocated for application processing. The Pavilion solution is able to deliver improved performance over their previous direct attached solution, while reducing management overhead by up to 50%.

In addition to eliminating overhead and improving performance, the HFA enables the firm to independently and linearly scale either compute or storage capacity, which will support their growth while reducing the resources required to manage their changing infrastructure.

The HFA offers performing array, with low consistent and predictable latency, density, linear scalability, and affordable price.

The technology storage needs of the financial services market are well aligned with Pavilion’s product functionality.

“Our client was faced with a significant burden as it sought to address the cost and complexity of managing its growing data sets. The Pavilion solution enables the firm to continue its aggressive growth objectives, while meeting the performance needs of its users and applications,” said Chris McBride, chief revenue officer. “The Pavilion Hyperparallel Flash Array was able to cut the client’s management costs in half while still increasing performance over its previous DAS based solution.“

Pavilion has multiple deployments in the financial services vertical and is continuing to expand its next gen data center footprint in this space.
