Case Study: Fordham University cuts workload deployment time with Nutanix automation

Fordham University cuts server provisioning from a week to less than a day with Nutanix

Fordham University, a higher education institution, faced escalating infrastructure costs from vendor license renewals and inefficient operational processes, such as provisioning virtual machines that took up to two weeks. To address these challenges, they partnered with Nutanix to implement Nutanix Cloud Manager (NCM) and its blueprints functionality for automation.

Nutanix provided a solution that streamlined operations through automation, drastically reducing server provisioning time from a week to less than a day. This resulted in significant time savings, reduced manual effort, and fewer errors. The implementation also provided new cost governance insights, allowing Fordham to optimize resource utilization and avoid a major licensing cost increase from a previous vendor.
