Case Study: Data Deposit Box reduces storage footprint and OPEX with Caringo Swarm

Data Deposit Box - Customer Case Study

Data Deposit Box, a cloud backup and recovery provider, faced the challenge of scaling its storage infrastructure to support petabytes of data for tens of thousands of customers after landing a major OEM deal. Their in-house system was manual and inefficient, and public cloud options like AWS and Azure proved time-consuming and raised data sovereignty concerns. The company needed an economical, scalable, and easily managed solution.

The vendor, Caringo, implemented its Swarm object storage software on Dell servers. This solution dramatically streamlined operations for Data Deposit Box, reducing their data center footprint by 82% and cutting monthly operational expenses by $50,000. A single administrator can now manage multiple petabytes of storage, allowing the company to efficiently scale to meet rapidly growing client demands.
