Farmers & Merchants Bank, a US-based financial institution, needed to cut heavy Microsoft Server 2019 and Dell EqualLogic SAN maintenance costs. So, the bank was looking for a shared storage solution providing a high intensity of I/O operations and eliminating the necessity to purchase additional SAN hardware. Using StarWind Virtual SAN (vSAN), Farmers & Merchants Bank builds a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) and saves $60,000 on its IT operational expenses.

Find out how Farmers & Merchants Bank gets a driving directions highly available (HA) IT environment thanks to StarWind vSAN.

The bank was searching for a shared storage solution that could handle a large volume of I/O activities while also avoiding the need to acquire extra storage area network (SAN) gear.

Yes, that's where things like Starwind shine. No need for SAN hardware (and fixes the fundamental SAN concepts that result in it being so fragile.)

I used Starwind for several years. It was solid and effective for the Hyper-V clusters it was implemented on
