The challenges which PXP was facing was to merge data environments while eliminating downtime on offshore platforms and incorporating data-intensive applications.

To overcome these challenges PXP and Conxerge selected the EqualLogic PS Series storage arrays because of their advanced functionality and seamless interoperability with blade servers and VMware virtualization software. "The EqualLogic PS array has first-rate reliability and fault tolerance, as well as remote management, on-demand provisioning, automatic load balancing, and a host of other advanced features," comments Phillip Skeete, PXP IT director.
