David Tourny | Responsible for IT

“As the sole IT support resource for the Eeklo factory, it is my responsibility to ensure we have real-time failover so that production is never interrupted. StorMagic SvSAN gives me this confidence. We have 23 production lines that need to remain operational day and night. If anything should go wrong and a robot stops working, it has a huge impact on our business. We were looking for an easy solution that could deal with real time failover and wasn’t as expensive as vSAN. There are a lot of products on the market that do a similar job but cannot guarantee a real time failover. With SvSAN we have the same quality as we had in the datacentre at less expense than vSAN. We run SvSAN on just a two server configuration, one either side of the building so that one will keep working if there’s a situation such as fire. Where necessary, usually when changing little things at our end, StorMagic technical support has been a great help to us.”
