VMware Crisis Turned Into a Complete Cloud, DR, and AI Win​

“We pay less now for the overall hosting solution with Expedient than we did just for storage and backup while we were in the data center.”
– Jamie Smith, CIO, University of Phoenix

A credit union running Jack Henry core banking faced an urgent VMware compliance crisis—unpatched, unsupported infrastructure with no clear path forward as a smaller customer. What had been a planned 2026 migration became an immediate Q3 2025 priority. Expedient delivered a fully managed cloud bundle including Expedient Enterprise Cloud (EEC), Push Button DR, Cohesity backup, and the AI CTRL Platform, accelerating their timeline while incorporating existing SD-WAN infrastructure and aligning billing to their budget cycle.​
