Case Study: Enclara Pharmacia achieves faster backups and restores with ExaGrid

Enclara Pharmacia restores data in 20 seconds with ExaGrid

Enclara Pharmacia, a leading hospice pharmacy services provider, faced a significant challenge with its outdated tape backup system using Veritas Backup Exec. Backup windows were extending into production hours, weekend jobs were running for days, and data restores were slow and unreliable. Seeking a disk-based solution, the company chose ExaGrid with its Tiered Backup Storage featuring the Landing Zone.

The ExaGrid solution provided a Landing Zone for fast direct backups and a deduplicated repository for retention. This allowed Enclara Pharmacia to complete all backups nightly without impacting production. Restores that previously took days were reduced to seconds. The ExaGrid system proved easy to maintain with proactive support, and the customer noted that backup jobs now run in one-third of the time compared to tape.
