Infrastructure Modernization to Streamline Global Operations

The BlueAlly Solution

After vetting hybrid multi-cloud management solutions, we chose Nutanix to solve this company’s distributed IT infrastructure challenges. We migrated their workloads from VMware to Nutanix across 145 sites within 18 months, finishing ahead of schedule and significantly under budget. Nutanix exceeded the distributor’s local data recovery objectives while enabling structured failover for its local workloads into its data centers if the loss of an individual ROBO site occurred. We also replaced their network switching infrastructure due to aging hardware in its ROBO sites. BlueAlly configured every Nutanix node and Fortinet switch individually in our staging facility before shipping each piece to its respective destination. We also handled the on-site installation, leveraging our expertise to streamline this arduous process and save substantial time and costs.

The Results

BlueAlly’s seamless implementation process empowers the food distributor with a global shared services support model, providing their teams with a framework for operating and managing the solution internally.

BlueAlly’s implementation model enables a future rollout of this hybrid multi-cloud management solution across the company’s global infrastructure, including data centers and other locations vital to the food distributor’s continued business operations.
