Challenges
Traditional storage was limiting
The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) is a national association for golf course superintendents and greens keepers that provides education, certification, advocacy, and community to its members. Once serving only the U.S., the organization now serves members around the world.
GCSAA wanted to improve service delivery to its clients both in the U.S. and worldwide. The association also had accumulated decades of data from which it was not gaining value and wanted to undertake a business intelligence initiative to drive its decision-making. However, GCSAA’s existing traditional storage could not provide the performance necessary to achieve these plans. Therefore, it wanted to consolidate its storage on a high-performance array.
