Case Study: M/I Homes achieves dramatic performance gains, simplified IT management, and major rack-space & power savings with Pure Storage

Top Reasons We Love Pure Storage

miHomes replaced a bulky, complex legacy VNX environment that consumed a rack and a half and required time‑consuming, error‑prone management, disruptive upgrades and limited scalability. They needed a simpler, faster, more scalable storage platform with strong support, modern management, built‑in security and better data efficiency.

They deployed Pure Storage—installed in about 20 minutes with an onsite Pure engineer—and now use Pure1 cloud monitoring, web‑based management, LDAP integration, snapshots/protection groups, hot‑swappable modular hardware and non‑disruptive shelf/controller upgrades. The result: consolidated into 8U (smaller carbon footprint), much faster server restarts and day‑to‑day performance, excellent support, native encryption and 4.2:1 data reduction delivering far greater effective capacity.
