Case Study: Revelation Software Concepts achieves 94% faster weekend backups and cloud-agnostic disaster recovery with Dell Technologies

Revelation Software Concepts protects their all-virtual environment and multiple SAP landscapes with faster backups and cloud-agnostic disaster recovery

Revelation Software Concepts, an Australian software development firm running an all-virtual VMware environment with ~150 VMs and nearly 500 SAP landscapes, faced slow, unreliable backups and no workable cloud‑ready disaster recovery to support a new hosted offering and meet customer SLAs. They evaluated Dell Technologies’ data protection stack — notably the Dell EMC IDPA DP4400 with Dell EMC Cloud DR and VMware Cloud on AWS — to replace their failing solution and achieve fast, predictable recoveries.

Dell Technologies implemented the IDPA DP4400 plus Cloud DR to replicate on‑prem backups to VMware Cloud on AWS, giving RSC a single, familiar console for on‑prem and cloud DR, smooth monthly restores and rapid failover/failback testing. The deployment cut the weekend backup window by 94% and nightly window by 72%, reduced local storage by 54% while doubling restore points, enabled cloud‑agnostic restores, and lowered training overhead — dramatically improving reliability and business continuity.
