Challenges

TierPoint wanted to change their approach to buying storage technology to increase efficiency and give customers greater value. The current process involved buying both technology and maintenance plans, followed by upgrades, renewals, and eventual replacement and data migration. TierPoint had many of these cycles overlapping, so that they were in constant life cycle management. Maintenance costs increased over time and renewals could feel like extortion. Budgeting was difficult, and unexpected expenses were common. On top of that, TierPoint was constantly buying buffer when reaching 80 or 90% capacity, leaving 10-30% capacity unused.

Results

TierPoint chose Pure Storage Evergreen//One™ for storage as a service after an extensive RFP process focused on flexibility, simplicity, sound economics, and a good SLA. Many people at TierPoint were involved in the months-long evaluation, and Pure Storage won on both technology and economics. TierPoint no longer has inconsistent pricing, budget challenges, excess capacity, and uncertainty associated with the repetitive cycle. TierPoint has since grown by 300% in three years, which is a win for both companies.

« En fonction des projets en cours, nos besoins en matière de volume de stockage peuvent rapidement passer de zéro à 200 To, et inversement. Notre infrastructure doit être capable de s’adapter en conséquence. Nous n’avons pas lieu de payer en permanence pour des données que nous n’utilisons qu’occasionnellement. »
