Case Study: Dimension Data achieves reliable, scalable backup protection with ExaGrid

Dimension Data scales backup storage to 2.7PB with ExaGrid

Dimension Data, a leading African technology provider and part of the NTT Group, partners with ExaGrid to offer its clients a superior data protection solution. The challenge was to provide clients with a reliable, cost-effective, and scalable backup storage system that could handle significant data growth and meet strict retention requirements, all while ensuring high performance for both backups and restores.

ExaGrid implemented its Tiered Backup Storage with a scale-out architecture, which provided fast backups and restores through its disk-cache Landing Zone and significant cost savings through efficient data deduplication. The solution resulted in highly reliable backup reports, successful monthly restore tests, and seamless scalability to accommodate data growth. ExaGrid's exceptional support model and strong partnership further ensured that Dimension Data could confidently recommend the solution, leading to high levels of client satisfaction.
