Burris Logistics standardizes on EMC for its VMware Virtualized IT Environment

EMC Corporation has announced that Burris Logistics has standardized its information infrastructure on EMC selecting EMC Symmetrix VMAX and EMC unified storage over NetApp and IBM, for its exceptional reliability, performance and value. Its EMC infrastructure has enabled Burris to easily virtualize 80% of its IT infrastructure with VMware vSphere virtualization and cloud infrastructure technologies as it moves to the cloud achieving more than $1 million in cost savings by virtualizing and consolidating its server footprint.

Bill Poore, Director of Infrastructure, Burris Logistics, said, "Burris prides itself on something we call 'wow service' - going above and beyond our customers' expectations. VMAX fits perfectly into that strategic focus. It has met oursix-9's uptime goal while delivering outstanding performance and reducing our costs. These attributes make a significant difference in our business."

"Since implementing VMAX, we have doubled our storage capacity without increasing our power and cooling usage. Having a mix of Flash, Fibre Channel and SATA drives in a single system gives us agility to respond to changing business demands and continue to grow without sacrificing performance or availability. In addition, our total cost of ownership savings is well in excess of $1 million as a result of virtualizing and consolidating our server footprint,"Bill Poore further added.
