Credit Acceptance Implemented Cohesity and Pure Storage

Cohesity, Inc., in hyperconverged secondary storage, announced Credit Acceptance Corporation has implemented Cohesity and Pure Storage, Inc., a solid-state array vendor.

With the combination of Pure Storage’s all-flash array for primary storage and Cohesity’s consolidated secondary storage platform, customers like Credit Acceptance Corporation can realize IT savings and get the best of both worlds by improving the performance of their mission-critical processes while maximizing the value of data held in secondary storage.

To handle increasingly complex data demands, enterprise customers need simple and effective solutions. Cohesity provides joint customers such as Credit Acceptance Corporation with the means to converge diverse secondary storage use cases on a single platform, while Pure Storage delivers an all-flash storage array for performance-critical applications.

“As a leading financial services company, our IT organization strives to leverage next generation datacenter technologies to deliver better services to the business and our customers,” said Rael O. Mussell, VP of IT, Credit Acceptance. “To harness the power of flash, we’ve rolled out Pure Storage’s all-flash arrays to drive increased performance of our most mission critical applications, while deploying Cohesity’s hyperconverged secondary storage solution for our backup and test/dev.“

Cohesity is working with Pure to leverage Pure Snapshots for backup and optimize end-to-end performance, especially for bare-metal workloads. The two companies have completed inter-operability testing and are working toward custom API integration.

“Combining best-in-class storage systems provides a versatile solution that not only shrinks the data center, but also provides significant business value to our customers,” said Cohesity CEO Mohit Aron, who pioneered hyper-convergence and founded both Nutanix and Cohesity.
