A federal credit union faced a mounting cost burden from VMware licensing, hardware refresh cycles, and facility upgrades, with little visibility into the true total cost of ownership (TCO) of its on-premises IT. An aging data center and an untested disaster recovery (DR) solution added uncertainty, while external pressures stretched a lean IT team. A TCO review with Expedient uncovered the hidden costs of running infrastructure in-house, and the credit union moved to Expedient Enterprise Cloud (EEC) with DRaaS, gaining a fixed operating model, tested DR, and fully managed operations.
