SDS with Substance: When Clarity, Control, and Cost Matter

Open-E JovianDSS – Powerful Storage Solutions Even in Cost-Conscious Times

The Hahn Automation Group case study demonstrates how clearly defined SDS strategies can succeed in even the most complex industrial IT environments – especially when budgets are tight and long-term flexibility is key. Rather than relying on expensive licenses or vendor lock-in, Hahn opted for a robust, hyperconverged SDS architecture powered by Open-E JovianDSS – built on VMware ESXi, NFS, and ZFS. The petabyte-scale archive system and high-availability clusters provide a real-world reference for your customer discussions.
