Building a “New School” Infrastructure at Oklahoma Wesleyan University

Thanks for your interest in the Oklahoma Wesleyan case study. In the case study, we detail the university’s key challenges, the search for a solution and why they selected Maxta. 

Oklahoma Wesleyan’s Challenges 

• Nimble storage array difficult to manage and running out of space 
• High cost of adding capacity to existing arrays 
• Hyperconverged appliances were interesting, but too expensive  upfront and at refresh 

 Maxta Benefits 

• Immediate $30,000 savings using hyperconvergence software on industry-standard servers vs. traditional storage   
• Ability to easily scale storage or compute as the university’s needs grew 
• Radically simplified storage management: no more LUNs, provisioning, or complicated capacity planning
