Case Study: CGH Medical Center improves backup security and efficiency with ExaGrid

CGH Medical Center eliminates 24-hour backups and tape with ExaGrid

CGH Medical Center, a progressive acute care facility, faced challenges with a tape-based backup system that required excessive management and led to long backup jobs of up to 24 hours. Seeking improved security to adhere to HIPAA mandates and to eliminate tape, they turned to ExaGrid for its tiered backup storage solution.

ExaGrid implemented a two-site system with an encrypted appliance at the disaster recovery location. This provided the required data security, eliminated offsite tape storage, and delivered fast backups and restores through ExaGrid's unique deduplication approach. The scale-out architecture ensures future scalability, and the customer highlighted a very smooth installation process with dedicated support. ExaGrid's solution made backups more efficient and saved the medical center significant time and hassle.
