MPI and Pure

Setting the Stage for Modern Business Operations

As its legacy systems aged and the threat of ransomware grew, the Motion Picture Industry Pension and Health Plans (MPI) transformed its IT operations with Pure Storage® to deliver speed, scalability, and data protection.


Summary

MPI administers health and retirement benefits for members of film industry unions and guilds and their dependents. To run IT systems at peak performance and meet pension and health regulations, MPI needed robust storage that complies with HIPAA and other data retention and privacy regulations. MPI standardized its storage environment with Pure Storage® FlashBlade® and FlashArray™ for fast performance and modern disaster recovery, with SafeMode™ snapshots protecting against cyberthreats.

Challenges

As the organization amassed more data and its aging storage neared the end of its service life, performance bottlenecks impacted the IT team’s productivity. Even simple tasks, such as annual batch reporting on members’ pension data, took days to complete. Backing up to tape was complex and it could take days to find and restore the right data from tapes. Operational continuity was at risk due to growing data security threats.
