A specialist for automotive glass replacements and repairs, Zentrale Autoglas GmbH is the European market leader for such services with buses. Zentrale Autoglas employees are on call 24/7 to fix buses with damaged windows or windshields. To provide this service as quickly as possible, the company has 25 locations in Germany and Austria and a sophisticated warehousing and logistics network for 12,000 different panes for nearly every type of bus imaginable. The technicians are available around the clock, 365 days a year.
Virtualization has long been a major topic at Zentrale Autoglas GmbH. However, virtualized or centralized storage had been lacking until now. After support for Windows Server 2008 expired, it was clear that a central, software-defined storage solution was needed for all business-critical applications. The idea was jointly implemented in a hyper-converged cluster.
The entire project fully met my expectations. The cluster arrived at our site ready to use. Commissioning with remote support was a straightforward and smooth process.
Zentrale Autoglas describes a smooth transition to virtualized, centralized storage that increases resilience, reduces operational overhead and eliminates maintenance windows. All thanks to a hyper-convergent system with maximum flexibility.
