Las Cruces Public Schools avoids 185% virtualization cost hike with Portworx

Las Cruces Public Schools (LCPS) faced a massive 185% license-fee increase from its virtualization technology provider and was managing end-of-life storage systems. To address this challenge, the school district partnered with Portworx to build a modern, cost-effective private cloud on Kubernetes.

LCPS implemented a solution using Red Hat OpenShift with Portworx for Kubernetes data management. This allowed them to migrate their virtual machines, avoid the 185% cost increase, and achieve an 88% faster provisioning time. The solution with Portworx also delivered a 13.1:1 data reduction ratio, significantly streamlining IT operations and creating a platform for future innovation.
