## Timely Disaster Recovery for a Global Technology Company

 ![Two colleagues looking at a computer monitor together]()

A global technology company focused on hardware and software integration for industrial controls migrated production from VMware to Nutanix AHV. However, their incumbent Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) provider only supported VMware-based DR. Left operating in production without any DR solution for months, a significant risk posture was created for a billion-dollar-plus global operation. The firm partnered with Expedient to deliver a best-of-breed DR solution for updated production environment.
