SAN JOSE, Calif. (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sphere 3D Corp. (NASDAQ:ANY), a containerization, virtualization, and data management solutions provider, today announced that Coppell ISD has selected the company’s HVE technology to upgrade the district’s technology infrastructure in their primary and secondary datacenters through HVE authorized reseller, Cynergy Technology.
Through an RFP process, Coppell ISD expressed a need for the modernization of the infrastructure of their primary and secondary datacenters in a number of areas. First was the district’s compute and storage needs; this included protection of business-critical applications, server virtualization, and an upgrade to 200 concurrent Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) sessions. Next, the district desired to modernize the networking between datacenters, moving to a spine and leaf architecture as well as software defined networking. Lastly, the district is implementing a web and application delivery controller solution.
