Moving a Large Residential Builder from Legacy to Cloud Modernization

Three colleagues talking together at a table with open laptops

This large residential builder was ready to move beyond a heavily on-premises IT model while facing an upcoming VMware renewal and colocation transition. The company needed a new production environment paired with disaster recovery (DR) and enough bandwidth for reliable failover. Expedient Private Cloud provided a flexible production environment with integrated Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), colocation, data protection, and managed operations. The result was gaining greater control and resilience, reducing on-premises reliance, and supporting the builder’s broader modernization plans.
