The hyper-converged infrastructure PRIMEFLEX for VMware vSAN ensures optimal uptime at JKP Gradska Čistoća

"The benefits include scalability, the long-lasting protection of the investment that we have made, and Fujitsu’s openness to configuring the system according to our demands."

Djordje Preradovic, IT Manager JKP Gradska Čistoća

JKP Gradska deployed a hyper-converged Fujitsu PRIMEFLEX for VMware vSAN solution to support core business functions. It provides scalability, flexibility, and simplicity.

The customer

JKP Gradska Čistoća maintains the cleanliness of public areas in Belgrade, Serbia, removing household rubbish, bulky garbage, car wrecks, and construction shafts, as well as human waste. There are 10 Belgrade municipalities covering almost half a million households, with over 25 million people in housing and more than 13 million square meters of office space. It has 1,834 employees and 843 temporary workers who regularly clean 2,250 city streets.

The challenge

JKP Gradska’s legacy server and storage infrastructure was no longer supported and needed replacing. The company wanted to find a more scalable, flexible solution that would last for five years and beyond.

The solution

Working with trusted local partner, Global Vision Consulting, JKP Gradska deployed a hyper-converged FUJITSU Integrated System PRIMEFLEX for VMware vSAN solution based on four FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY CX400 units with 256GB memory, combined with five 1.2TB SAS HDD storage, and one 400GB write-intensive SAS HDD cache drive.
