Case Study: Nampak resolves backup storage capacity issues with ExaGrid

Nampak scales backup storage to 6PB with ExaGrid

Nampak, Africa's largest packaging manufacturer, faced storage capacity issues with its existing Veritas deduplication appliance. The lack of scalability became problematic as data grew, threatening the company's fast-paced environment which could not afford downtime. To resolve this, Nampak, with its technology partner Dimension Data, selected ExaGrid's Tiered Backup Storage for its proven scale-out architecture.

ExaGrid implemented a solution with two appliances at the primary site and one at a DR site, which integrated seamlessly with the existing Veritas NetBackup environment using OST. This resolved the capacity issues and provided impressive restore speeds even during peak network usage. The customer also highlighted ExaGrid's proactive support and the security benefits of its Retention Time-Lock feature, ensuring the backup environment was always protected and up-to-date.
