    • Vision

      Barkley, a creative agency that has served leading brands for over 50 years, aims to help client brands be the best they can be. Barkley realized that it was time to rebuild its aging data center to better serve clients, empower team members and operate efficiently and sustainably.

    • Solution

      Barkley rebuilt its data center by deploying a new infrastructure from Dell Technologies. Dell PowerScale scale-out storage replaced disparate legacy storage with a unified, centrally managed and highly secure solution. Dell VxRail hyperconverged infrastructure enables real-time video editing by creative team members anywhere.

    • Impact

      With secure, easy access to videos and other content assets, Barkley enabled real-time video processing from the data center, empowering a hybrid workforce to deliver high-quality client services more efficiently. The new infrastructure scales across all Barkley locations and greatly accelerated data and system recovery.
