Case Study: Takatsuki City achieves disaster-ready business continuity and simplified IT operations with Nutanix

Nutanix Constructs System that will Continue Operating even during Large-scale Disaster

Takatsuki City, a local government in Osaka Prefecture, faced rising demand for remote work and a stronger business continuity plan after the 2018 earthquake and the COVID‑19 pandemic. Their legacy 3‑tier infrastructure was complex, costly to maintain, prone to slow shutdowns and long log searches, and made server consolidation and disaster recovery difficult within tight public‑sector budgets.

The city deployed Nutanix Enterprise Cloud OS (AHV and Prism Pro) and built an identical DR site, creating a simple, scalable virtualization platform. The new environment runs groupware for 2,000+ users stably, cut log‑search times from tens of minutes to seconds, enabled one‑click recovery and fast backups, reduced operational workload so non‑IT staff can manage tasks, improved file performance (~10× faster), and lowered costs by consolidating vendors and infrastructure.
