Case Study: SriLankan Airlines achieves faster backups and better compliance with Commvault

Srilankan Airlines cuts daily backup windows by 64% with Commvault

SriLankan Airlines, the national carrier of Sri Lanka, faced challenges with a labor-intensive, tape-based backup system that was unable to quickly respond to critical safety audits. The airline needed a modern data management solution to improve backup performance for its complex environment and support long-term data retention requirements. They turned to Commvault and implemented Commvault Cloud Backup & Recovery software.

Commvault provided a solution that automated backup and recovery processes, integrating with the airline's on-premises environment. This implementation resulted in a 64% reduction in the daily backup window for Microsoft Exchange servers and a 33% gain in data management efficiency. Commvault enabled timely responses to safety audits, automated long-term data retention for compliance, and freed the IT team to focus on driving business value.
