A British Columbia regional district runs Scale Computing and has spoken for it to municipal IT peers through MISA.
The situation
Regional districts deliver local government services across large areas with lean IT teams.
What they did
Strathcona Regional District runs its infrastructure on Scale Computing. Its IT manager, Jon Schmuland, a MISA member, has spoken publicly about the platform.
The result
Scale Computing sponsors MISA, the association of municipal IT professionals, and cited Strathcona as a customer when it announced the partnership.
Why it matters
Municipal IT teams trust what their peers run. This is one of them.
