Challenges

The Choctaw Nation investigated several vendors and consulted Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for storage.

They faced several challenges.

Lagging storage performance resulted in high latencies and long wait times for routine file requests.
Video production demands overtaxed the IT infrastructure.
Legacy spinning-disk storage was expensive and time-consuming to maintain.
