A northern BC regional district has run Scale since 2017 and approved new nodes to extend the cluster another six to seven years.
The situation
The Peace River Regional District has run a Scale Computing cluster since 2017. Three of its four nodes reached end of life in 2024.
What they did
The board approved new nodes through CDW Canada, under the amount budgeted.
The result
The refresh is expected to extend the cluster six to seven years without affecting performance or security.
Why it matters
A public body that chooses to renew rather than replace is the clearest sign a platform has earned its place.
