OSSEA in Action Across Industries

By industry

Healthcare

Challenge: Healthcare organizations need secure, compliant infrastructure for electronic health records (EHR), medical imaging (PACS), and clinical applications—with zero tolerance for downtime.

OSSEA solution:

High Availability
Automatic VM failover ensures clinical systems stay online
Immutable Backup
Protect patient data from ransomware with write-once backups
Compliance
HIPAA-ready with audit logs, encryption, and role-based access
Reavyr VDI
Deploy secure clinician desktops across multiple sites
OSSEA AI
Provision infrastructure from hospital IT project specs automatically
Example
NHS trust migrated 300 VMs from VMware to OSSEA with <5 minutes downtime per VM, saving £200K annually in licensing costs.

Education

Challenge: Schools and universities need cost-effective infrastructure for student VDI, learning management systems, and administrative applications—with tight budgets and seasonal demand.

OSSEA solution:

Reavyr VDI
Provision student desktops on-demand, reset after use, scale for exams
Cost Efficiency
No per-user VDI licensing, no VMware renewal fees
OSSEA AI
Deploy lab environments from course syllabi (upload specs, get infrastructure)
Self-Service
Faculty can request VMs via OSSEA AI without IT intervention
Multi-Site
Central management for distributed campus locations
Example
University replaced Citrix VDI with OSSEA Reavyr, reducing VDI costs by 70% and provisioning time from days to hours.

Legal Services

Challenge: Law firms require secure document management, case management systems, and remote work capabilities—with strict client confidentiality and disaster recovery requirements.

OSSEA solution:

Immutable Backup
Protect client files from ransomware and accidental deletion
Disaster Recovery
Site-to-site replication for business continuity
Reavyr VDI
Secure remote attorney desktops with centralized data control
Compliance
Audit trails for client data access (ISO 27001, SOC 2)
Multi-Office
Unified infrastructure across multiple office locations
Example
National law firm deployed OSSEA across 12 offices, achieving 15-minute DR failover time (previously 8+ hours).

Financial Services

Challenge: Banks, credit unions, and investment firms need high-performance infrastructure for trading platforms, core banking systems, and regulatory compliance—with stringent security and uptime requirements.

OSSEA solution:

High Performance
100,000+ IOPS for database workloads (core banking, trading)
Zero Data Loss
Synchronous replication for mission-critical applications
Compliance
PCI-DSS, SOX, FINRA-ready with encrypted storage and audit logs
Air-Gapped Backup
Immutable backups for regulatory retention
Network Segmentation
Isolate trading, banking, and back-office workloads
Example
Regional bank replaced ageing VMware infrastructure with OSSEA, improving database performance by 3x while cutting costs by 60%.

Government & Public Sector

Challenge: Government agencies need secure, auditable infrastructure for citizen services, internal applications, and data sovereignty—with predictable budgets and compliance requirements.

OSSEA solution:

Data Sovereignty
On-premise deployment ensures data stays within borders
Transparent Licensing
Predictable costs for public sector budgets
Compliance
FedRAMP, FISMA, IL4/IL5-ready with audit trails
OSSEA AI
Rapidly deploy infrastructure for emergency response projects
Multi-Tenancy
Isolate workloads across departments with RBAC
Example
Local government deployed OSSEA for citizen portal and back-office systems, achieving 99.99% uptime with 1/3 the cost of VMware.

Housing & Property Management

Challenge: Housing associations and property managers need reliable infrastructure for tenant management, maintenance systems, and contact centers—with limited IT staff and tight budgets.

OSSEA solution:

Simplicity
Deploy in hours, manage from one dashboard, update in minutes
Cost Efficiency
Eliminate VMware/Nutanix licensing fees
Backup & DR
Protect tenant data with immutable backups and disaster recovery
Reavyr VDI
Contact center desktops with automated provisioning and updates
OSSEA AI
Provision new systems from project briefs without scripting
Example
Housing association migrated from failing VMware infrastructure to OSSEA, reducing IT overhead by 50% and eliminating licensing renewals.

Migration scenarios

VMware to OSSEA

Scenario: Rising VMware costs, license renewal deadlines, or Broadcom acquisition concerns.

OSSEA Approach:

  • Near-live migration (<5 min downtime per VM)
  • Incremental sync (CBT tracking)
  • Test failover before cutover
  • Complete in weeks, not months

Hyper-V to OSSEA

Scenario: Outgrowing Hyper-V capabilities or consolidating multi-hypervisor environments.

OSSEA Approach:

  • Migrate VMs with minimal downtime
  • Superior storage and networking vs. Hyper-V
  • Unified platform for compute, storage, backup

Physical to OSSEA (P2V)

Scenario: Aging physical servers, end-of-life hardware, or modernization projects.

OSSEA Approach:

  • Convert physical workloads to VMs
  • Gain backup, HA, and DR capabilities
  • Reduce datacenter footprint
