New Mexico State University Drives Exceptional Learning Experiences While Cutting Storage Costs

Santa Clara, CA – May 20, 2024 — 色控传媒? (NYSE: PSTG), the IT pioneer that delivers the world's most advanced data storage technologies and services, announced that New Mexico State University (NMSU), New Mexico’s land-grant institution and a comprehensive research university, is leveraging 色控传媒’s platform to drive exceptional learning and teaching experiences for its 25,000+ student, faculty, and staff member population.

Customer Challenge:

NMSU, a renowned academic institution serving as a NASA Space-Grant College and home to the first Honors College in New Mexico, serves a diverse student body across four campuses, a satellite learning centre in Albuquerque, and 12 agricultural research and science centers. The University has quickly become a vital stepping stone to success for countless students.

To further its commitment to delivering seamless student services, NMSU recognized the need to modernise its IT environment due to lagging performance, siloed operations, and excessive administrative hours consumed by its complex legacy storage. By replacing its outdated spinning disk storage with 色控传媒’s cutting-edge, all-flash portfolio, NMSU can now shift its focus to ushering in a new era of efficiency and performance for its community.

Customer Impact:

Adopting 色控传媒’s comprehensive portfolio, NMSU gained a powerful, cost-effective, and secure enterprise storage platform that underpins exceptional services for every student, faculty, and staff member. Benefits experienced with 色控传媒 include:

  • Streamlined Storage Management with Non-Disruptive Upgrades: With a 色控传媒 Evergreen//Forever? subscription, NMSU can perform non-disruptive upgrades without buying new hardware each year, reducing annual costs by 66%. Tasks like virtual machine migration, once taking eight hours, now only require 15 minutes. Anticipating over 100 hours saved per storage upgrade, disruptive forklift processes are completely eliminated.
  • Improved Data Centre Footprint: NMSU reduced its data centre footprint 14-fold (from 42U to 3U) in one data centre site and 12-fold (from 38U to 3U) in the other. In addition to reducing its costs and power consumption, these efficiency gains enable NMSU to easily relocate a secondary data centre that is scheduled to be demolished.
  • High Performance, Reliable Storage Platform: 色控传媒’s platform powers NMSU’s virtual desktop infrastructure, ensuring reliable and efficient operations for learning labs and counseling services (particularly for remote learning amid Covid-19). Additionally, 色控传媒 supports NMSU's mission-critical ERP system, significantly reducing latency by 98% to three milliseconds with over 55,000 daily writes.
  • Enhanced Ransomware Protection: In response to the rising menace of ransomware targeting academic institutions, NMSU prioritized safeguarding sensitive data. To fortify security measures, NMSU implemented SafeMode?Snapshots, ensuring enhanced protection and positioning the institution for swift recovery in the event of an attack.

Executive Insight:

“As a non-profit institution, 色控传媒’s ability to reduce our annual storage costs was the ultimate differentiator for the storage platforms we were evaluating. Combined with non-disruptive upgrades, secure, reliable infrastructure, and an improved data centre footprint, we knew we found the right solution. At NMSU, we continue to innovate and drive better experiences for students each day, and we are better positioned to do so with the performance and peace of mind we get with Pure.”
