Case Study: St. James Insurance Group achieves near-zero recovery time and scalable, cost-effective cloud DR with 11:11 Systems

Insurance provider’s sophisticated analysis, powered by cloud technology, helps clients weather storms

St. James Insurance Group, a privately owned insurer that specializes in tailored programs for disaster‑prone regions, needed an IT backbone capable of protecting critical data, controlling skyrocketing IT costs, and scaling to run compute‑intensive forecast modeling. The company faced the choice of expensive hardware refreshes or finding a cloud partner that could deliver reliable disaster recovery and on‑demand capacity.

St. James deployed 11:11 Systems’ DRaaS (Zerto) and moved production workloads to a reservation‑plus‑burst cloud model with failover to an offsite data center. The result was near‑zero recovery times, elastic capacity for heavy forecasting jobs at a fraction of capital cost, cost‑effective peace of mind, and freed IT resources to focus on strategic growth.
