Case Study: Suzhou King Long achieves smarter, more efficient manufacturing with Nutanix

Suzhou King Long cuts space and power usage by 60% with Nutanix

Suzhou King Long, a leading Chinese bus manufacturer, faced challenges with an inflexible and time-consuming three-tier IT infrastructure that hindered its shift to service-oriented manufacturing and limited data sharing. The vendor Nutanix provided a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solution with its Enterprise Cloud OS and AHV hypervisor to replace this legacy system.

By implementing Nutanix HCI, the company migrated core business systems and gained significant agility. The solution more than doubled IT management efficiency, reduced scaling time from weeks to hours, and cut space and power usage by over 60%. Performance improved dramatically, with storage IOPS reaching 2-3 million. Nutanix provided the scalable foundation for Suzhou King Long's intelligent manufacturing goals and future hybrid cloud plans.
