A food and consumer goods chain consolidated in-store servers onto shared, highly available storage across 120 locations.
The situation
A leading Western Canadian food and consumer goods retailer runs 120 stores, open long hours, each with its own servers and its own single points of failure.
What they did
It deployed StorMagic SvSAN to combine each store’s servers onto shared storage, mirrored across two servers, managed through the tools its team already used.
The result
High availability in every store without adding SAN hardware. StorMagic does not name the retailer in its case study.
Why it matters
Multi-store operators in Canada face the same problem in every location. Two servers per store is the smallest design that removes it.
