Case Study: Egged Israel Transport achieves continuous transit service and rapid data recovery with Commvault HyperScale Appliances

Egged Israel Transport ensures continuous transit service with Commvault HyperScale™ Appliances

Egged Israel Transport, Israel’s largest public transit company serving almost a million passengers daily, was managing roughly 270 TB of critical data (GPS, routes, timetables, ticketing), 500 Microsoft 365 mailboxes and 700 physical/virtual machines. The company struggled with a costly, labor‑intensive IBM TSM and tape-based backup process that made recoveries slow, risked transit service disruptions and demanded long hours from IT staff.

Egged deployed three Commvault HyperScale Appliances with Nutanix to protect on‑premises, cloud and SaaS data and establish a DR copy. The new solution enabled machine recoveries in minutes via a unified console, cut server configuration time by 86%, achieved an 80% deduplication ratio that eliminated tape purchases, reduced downtime and administration effort, and freed the IT team to focus on strategic projects.
