No growing pains here
Thanks to virtualization and the reliability of the 
ProLiant DL380 G6, Compudyne is able to offer 
enhanced services to clients at a lower price point. 
Says Simonson, “We can offer hosted Exchange and 
a fixed monthly expense on hosted servers offering IIS 
(Web), Domain Controller functionality, file and print, 
monitoring services, and remote connectivity.”
Moving from physical to virtual servers enables IT to 
easily deliver a small business server to a five-user 
network—they can bring these kinds of services online 
in minutes rather than hours. “The savings in time 
and resource have allowed us to handle at least 10 
percent more clients—at the same time we virtualized 
and experienced this increased effectiveness, we were 
also growing the business and adding more clients. 
It’s an exciting time for Compudyne,” states Simonson. 
He continues, “We now have the ability to offer a 
wider range of hosted services with HP virtualization, 
whereas before it would take a larger investment in 
hardware and time which in some cases did not justify 
offering the solution.”
The additional space in Compudyne’s data center 
also enables it to host servers for other tenants in their 
building. “It’s pretty neat,” observes Simonson, “it 
has opened up so many doors for us and enables us 
to build great relationships with other tenants in our 
building and throughout the downtown area.”
“The HP DL380 G6s are treating us just great,” 
Simonson sums up. “It helps those of us who are 
responsible for cleaning things up in the event of a 
disaster to sleep a little more soundly at night.”
