Located in hurricane-prone Florida, St. Petersburg College wanted to implement a feasible, realistic disaster recovery strategy.

SPC built a disaster recovery site on their sister campus, Seminole Community College, using DellTM hardware with VMware® virtualization.

The virtualized solution has enabled SPC to replicate full scale business operations in a small physical space using few servers. It delivers remote management capabilities, cost and resource efficiencies, and it serves as a development environment too.
