Moving what had previously filled an entire room in its former data center onto two racks in its new environment , Johnson Brothers has invested in a hyper-converged infrastructure , and has embedded cutting-edge technologies , whether compute , all flash storage , unified backup or network , including a full SD-WAN . The company has developed strong relationships with Dell , Nutanix , Datatrend and others in turning its three-tier architecture into a state of the art hyperconverged infrastructure , delivering optimal compute and storage capacity , and most importantly , speed .
“ Our new production environment is at least 10-20x faster to accommodate for growth and the ability to process more business . For example , our backups for our ERP system used to run all night long on Sunday night and take everything offline . Now we ’ re down to less than two hours and that ’ s not even on our new IBM Power 9 Server yet ,” adds Dokken .
The complete modernization of its technology stack remains an important part of its strategy , leading Johnson Brothers to leverage the capabilities
