Customer Stories: Pickles

Pickles

Our Customer

Pickles is Australia’s No. 1 auction and valuation specialist and a trusted asset remarketing partner. In the last financial year Pickles sold over $2.6 billion in assets, with 41% of purchases made online through PicklesLIVE.

The Obstacles They Faced

With customers increasingly demanding more from digital services, Pickles’ existing managed private cloud service was limited in its interoperability and flexibility in connecting to current public cloud services for optimal scalability.

What We Achieved Together

Pickles partnered with Rackspace to deploy a hybrid cloud strategy that combines the benefits of a private cloud utilising VMware’s software-defined data centre (SDDC) and a Disaster Recovery solution employing Rackspace and Microsoft technologies.
