We are a hosting provider and use Storpool as our main storage solution. Our different platforms connect to the same storage system. We have connected it with OnApp, OpenNebula and Jelastic and have performed different integrations. We currently have about five different Storpool clusters for our different zones which are shared within our multiple platforms. The integration has been seamless. Our clusters are spread in 2 data centers and allows us to offer different solutions to our customers with our platforms.
We initially started using StorPool at three locations with a capacity of 250+ TB. By implementing StorPool, we managed to increase both our gross margins and performance, while decreasing the latency to 0.19-0.26 ms up to 125,000 IOPS.

We have 12 active locations around the world and a number of new locations in development, which makes our case more complex. We were looking for flexibility in the deployment model, allowing us to tailor the storage solution to the specific requirements of every location. StorPool’s storage solution integrated seamlessly with the networking and computing pieces. For instance, in Zurich, our largest cloud, StorPool was deployed in a semi-converged setup which combines converged all-SSD nodes (running both applications and storage) with separate storage-only HDD nodes. In other locations where the power density is lower, the optimal setup is different and in that case a fully converged setup is used. We are very happy and can finally say that the collaboration that we have had with StorPool has been excellent. We’ve been very happy with the reactions of the operational team both in terms of managing the solution and expanding it, but also in terms of dealing with issues and working together. We found StorPool to be a great partner in terms of our service delivery.
