Case Study
Akron Public Schools Selects Nutanix
This Nutanix case study details how Akron Public Schools transformed its IT infrastructure. Previously, the school district faced significant challenges with an overworked three-tier VMware virtualization environment and legacy SAN. This setup struggled to support compute-intensive applications like Munis financial software and its large MS SQL backend, leading to slow processing and hindering necessary software upgrades due to insufficient hardware capacity. By implementing the Nutanix solution, Akron Public Schools achieved dramatic improvements. They experienced a 10x reduction in their datacenter footprint and saw processing times for critical tasks, such as financial reports and database restoration, decrease by factors of 2.6x to 8.3x, significantly boosting operational efficiency an
