Case Study: City of Memphis achieves automated, streamlined backups and reduced downtime with Asigra

The City of Memphis Automates and Streamlines Backup and Recovery Processes with EVS Intelligent BackupTM powered by Asigra

The City of Memphis, Tennessee’s largest metropolitan government, serves more than 1.3 million residents with over 6,000 employees across a heterogeneous IT environment. Facing an expanding application landscape, stricter recovery objectives, frequent archival data requests under Sunshine/Freedom of Information laws, and tight budget constraints, the city needed a flexible, scalable and affordable backup and recovery solution that would reduce labor and improve access to critical data.

EVS implemented EVS Intelligent Backup™ powered by Asigra (DS-Client, DS-System and Backup Lifecycle Management), delivering nightly incremental backups, secure off-site storage, and tiered archival access that trades speed for cost. The automated, off-site solution improved disaster readiness, sped FOIA responses, provided a single point of contact with a 15‑minute response time, reduced downtime and costs, and freed IT personnel to focus on other projects.
