Blue Machinery ensures uninterrupted access to its critical systems by deploying a high-availability storage cluster
Blue Machinery, a UK-based supplier of materials processing and handling equipment for construction, recycling, forestry, and industrial sectors, needed a more resilient IT infrastructure to ensure continuous access to critical business systems. Before deploying StarWind Virtual SAN (VSAN), the company operated a small Hyper-V environment on standalone servers without centralized storage, failover capabilities, or high availability. This created a significant risk of service disruption if a server failed, as hosted workloads could become unavailable. To address these challenges, Blue Machinery implemented StarWind VSAN and built a high-availability shared storage cluster with real-time data synchronization between hosts. The solution improved fault tolerance, enabled seamless failover, and
