Build a hyperconverged infrastructure with StarWind

Newton County Water & Sewerage Authority (NCWSA), a U.S.-based public utility, operated a and -based infrastructure with multiple physical and virtual servers but lacked redundancy at both the host and storage levels. The organization required a cost-effective infrastructure solution that could provide (HA) and simplify management. By deploying HCI Appliance ( ), NCWSA consolidates compute and storage resources into an HA platform and creates a redundant hyperconverged environment, thus improving service continuity for critical municipal operations.

Stateful vs Stateless: An Infrastructure Perspective

State is one of the most important factors affecting application scalability, availability, and recovery. While can scale horizontally with minimal operational overhead, introduce requirements around persistent storage, replication, , , and data consistency.
Our new article by Dmytro Malynka for examines the differences between stateful and stateless applications, including deployments vs , databases, message brokers, caching platforms, and modern cloud-native architectures. Read more here: https://starwind.com/s/1br
