Case Study: Curry County achieves secure, scalable backup modernization with ExaGrid and Veeam

Curry County secures 14:1 deduplication and 6PB scale with ExaGrid

Curry County, New Mexico, needed to modernize its legacy backup storage infrastructure to meet state-mandated data retention policies and improve security against ransomware. The county's IT Director, Todd Ulses, sought a more dependable and easier-to-manage solution that could integrate with Veeam and provide better deduplication. They chose to implement the ExaGrid Tiered Backup Storage system to address these challenges.

The ExaGrid solution provided comprehensive security features, including Retention Time-Lock for ransomware recovery, and its scale-out architecture allowed for easy expansion as data grows. The combined ExaGrid-Veeam deduplication provided significant storage savings, enabling the county to meet its long-term retention requirements efficiently. The implementation was seamless, and the county's IT team praised ExaGrid for its proactive support and the system's ease of management.
