Read MoreSterling partnered with Dell Technologies to produce an advanced AI Factory for Leidos, a leading innovation company specializing in national defense technology. This significant project involved deploying high-performance Dell PowerEdge servers, PowerScale storage, and NVIDIA networking, optimized with Red Hat OpenShift for large-scale AI/ML workloads. Our certified engineers provided crucial onsite hardware configuration, virtualization strategy, and a comprehensive three-day training program covering hardware, NVIDIA AI Enterprise software, and OpenShift. This end-to-end solution, including system testing and knowledge transfer, showcases our deep expertise in delivering complex, secure, and scalable AI infrastructure alongside NVIDIA product enhancements.
Sterling, alongside Dell Technologies and NVIDIA, was named a 2025 Corporate Partner of the Year by the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) Foundation. This recognition highlights our leadership in deploying advanced simulation and AI ecosystems. Specifically, Sterling and Dell delivered the essential hardware, storage infrastructure, and systems integration to implement NVIDIA’s Omniverse platform at NPS. This included the physical setup of Dell PowerEdge R760XA servers and core NVIDIA software deployment. This collaborative effort fuels AI-enabled research, modeling, and simulation, establishing a first-of-its-kind capability within the Department of the Navy to accelerate AI adoption and innovation.
Sterling, working with Dell Technologies, assisted a city government in the migration of their data from two separate data centers. To begin the process, we recommended an assessment of the city’s existing virtualized environment to verify they were properly integrated, optimized, and secured prior to the migration process. We then provided onsite and remote team support that assisted with the full migration of data across the data centers. To ensure post-migration success, our team created a Test Plan to validate data, the backup/restore processes, and other failover scenarios, ensuring the customer is set up for success for years to come.
We strategically leverage 1,500+ industry partnerships to support our modern infrastructure solutions, allowing us to provide optimal performance outcomes for every deployment. We’re a highly regarded Global Solutions Integrator who is routinely called upon to carry out mission-critical tasks for our partners. With Sterling, you can rest easy in the knowledge that you’re receiving more than just the best products in the business; you’re also receiving custom, tailor-made modern infrastructure solutions that are built to perform and are supported by the leading names in tech.
Sterling assesses and modernizes customers’ IT infrastructure to produce optimal performance and secure experiences. This typically includes modernization techniques that focus on upgrading current systems, enacting better security practices, streamlining management, utilizing cloud, and optimizing performance to allow for the latest advancements like AI.
Modernization doesn’t always mean starting from the ground up, though. Organizations may have modern resources on hand, but they might be installed improperly or inefficiently, leading to poor performance and lax security. Sterling has experience to improve these misconfigured infrastructures by optimizing performance, ensuring every level of security is checked, and recommending only necessary additions to produce successful outcomes.
Infrastructure modernization significantly benefits organizations by boosting efficiency and performance through solutions like Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI) and optimized data centers, both of which can lead to faster processing and greater productivity. Sterling’s modern infrastructure solutions ensure scalability and adaptability, allowing organizations to grow and innovate without costly overhauls. Simplified management and reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) are achieved via consolidated, automated systems. Modern infrastructure also provides improved security, robust data protection, and operational resilience against cyber threats. Crucially, it lays a stable foundation from which to leverage cutting-edge technologies like High Performance Computing (HPC) as well as AI and ML. With Sterling, organizations gain accelerated insights, competitive advantages, and are poised for future success.
Modern infrastructure solutions drastically reduce technical debt by enabling organizations to retire outdated, complex legacy systems while enabling advancements. System automations and orchestration streamline operations, minimize manual errors, and prevent new debt accumulation. Standardization and simplification consolidate disparate systems, making them easier to manage, update, and secure. Enhanced scalability and flexibility allow rapid adaptation to changing needs, avoiding costly “band-aid” fixes. An improved security posture with advanced features mitigates breach risks and compliance penalties. Finally, leveraging managed cloud services offloads infrastructure overhead, allowing teams to focus on core competencies and mission-critical applications, further reducing long-term technical burdens.
Sterling has expertise across all system structures, with an aim to produce the best outcomes for modernization. That said, there are a few pivotal areas of note:
Data Centers: Transforming traditional data centers into future-ready, efficient, and flexible environments, often through Hyperconverged Infrastructure.
Cloud Environments: Balancing on-premises control with public cloud scalability, ensuring seamless data and application management across both.
High-Performance Computing & AI/ML/DL Workloads: Optimizing infrastructure to support demanding computational tasks, drive innovation, and accelerate data analysis.
Data Storage Systems: Tailoring solutions for optimal performance, cost-efficiency, data resiliency, and maximum uptime across various architectures (SAN, NAS, unified, tiered, virtual SAN, etc.).
Backup, Archive, and Disaster Recovery Systems: Implementing robust solutions to protect critical data and workloads from loss, corruption, or ransomware, ensuring rapid recovery and business continuity.
Edge and Remote Environments: Deploying portable, compact compute and storage solutions designed for challenging, remote, or tactical scenarios to ensure operational resilience.
