Case Study: Catawba Valley Community College achieves instant VM recovery with ExaGrid and Veeam

Catawba Valley Community College backs up its Hyper-V cluster in less than 6 hours with ExaGrid

Catawba Valley Community College faced a major data loss due to an unstable and unrecoverable virtual environment backup system. This incident prompted the college's IT department to seek a new, more reliable backup solution. They selected the Veeam backup application and chose ExaGrid as their backup storage target based on its strong integration with Veeam.

The ExaGrid system provided fast backup times and instant VM recoveries by allowing virtual machines to be run directly from its landing zone if primary storage failed. The college achieved a high combined deduplication ratio, significantly reducing its storage requirements. The solution also featured helpful, knowledgeable support and a scalable architecture for future growth, giving the college a disaster recovery protection system it can count on.
