Case Study: Mississippi Public Broadcasting achieves faster backups and restores with ExaGrid and Veeam

Mississippi Public Broadcasting boosts backup retention with ExaGrid and 14:1 deduplication

Mississippi Public Broadcasting (MPB) needed to refresh its backup environment, moving away from a difficult-to-use application and a solution that offered limited data protection. The organization required a system that could handle its large media files and provide confidence in recovery capabilities. MPB chose to implement a backup solution from ExaGrid, pairing its storage appliance with Veeam backup software.

ExaGrid's solution provided MPB with fast backup and restore performance, which was critical for handling its large media files. The combined deduplication of ExaGrid and Veeam significantly reduced storage requirements, providing plenty of room for data growth and supporting a three-year retention policy. Furthermore, ExaGrid provided high-quality, reliable support that was critical for the small IT department, ensuring quick issue resolution and system reliability.
