In 2016 this large pharma needed to refresh their Remote Office Branch Office (ROBO) sites. After a successful proof of concept, 2 Node vSAN on HP ProLiant Servers was chosen. Since then, vSAN has been deployed for management clusters and VDI in USA and EMEA as well as in 2 of their 13 regional data centers. Next, Cloud Foundation is being considered to replace their legacy Blade servers & Storage arrays.

In early 2014 this mid-size pharma needed to build a DR site and chose a 4 Node vSphere cluster with vSAN enabled. They used vSphere Replication and SRM to test and automate DR. This year they are replacing their production data center with HCI and vSAN.

vSAN was chosen to support production and test/dev Hadoop workloads. Two other vSAN clusters are used for new application workload POC’s. In addition, 2 Cloud Foundation configurations, each with a management cluster and a VM workload cluster are being implemented to POC how the automation simplifies operations.

Q&A
• What prompted your organization to explore hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI)?
• What other hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) solutions did you consider and test? Did you consider traditional architectures?
• What were the absolute requirements of hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) solution?
• Can you talk a little bit about your evaluation process - POC, testing?
• What made you decided on VMware VSAN?
• What is the Server platform you chose for VSAN? Can you tell a little about the VSAN server configuration such as type of disk, Flash, spinning, etc?
• What is the workload and/or use case for your VSAN implementation?
• How does VSAN benchmark against your legacy traditional storage infrastructure?
• Do you use Storage Policy Based Management (SPBM) with VSAN?
• How are you protecting your data on VSAN? Backup, DR?
• What improvements have you seen after moving to VSAN (cost, performance, management, integration, provisioning efficiencies)?
• Are there any additional benefits or efficiencies you realized when moving to VSAN, that you did not even consider when evaluating hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI)?
• What management or support adjustment did your organization have to make, when moving from a traditional storage environment?Culture? Operational/Process?
