Case Study: Spectrum achieves rapid 30 TB replication to 7 sites in 4 hours to meet peak demand with Commvault

Spectrum enriches viewing experience for 28 million customers

Spectrum, a major U.S. media provider serving 28 million customers across 41 states, moved from live streaming to a video‑on‑demand model and needed to ensure popular content was always available. The company faced bandwidth constraints and tight timeframes for pushing large volumes of content to regional sites while supporting a new content delivery network and meeting peak viewing demand.

Spectrum implemented Commvault ContinuousDataReplicator with Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform G800 in a hub‑and‑spoke design to tier and replicate 30 TB of content to seven regional sites in about four hours. Using analytics to preposition trending content, the solution eliminated delivery latency, optimized resource utilization, met peak demand, and preserved a strong customer experience and market reputation.
