Colohouse Builds a Scalable Storage Service Platform
To support rapid expansion, Colohouse replaced its costly and inefficient storage solutions nearing end-of-life with Pure Storage.

Challenges

Following six strategic acquisitions, managing its different storage solutions had become a logistical nightmare for Colohouse. These spinning disk systems were costly, inefficient, and reaching end of life, with little ability to handle fluctuating capacity demands. The firm also needed to provide its customers with fast data recovery in the event of cyberattack or data loss.
