Case Study: Nucor Steel Jackson cuts backup windows in half with ExaGrid

Nucor Steel Jackson cuts backup windows by 50% with ExaGrid

Nucor Steel Jackson, a division of the largest steel producer in the United States, faced a challenge with its existing Dell EMC Data Domain backup storage. As data grew, backup windows became unsustainable and the system required a costly forklift upgrade. Network Systems Administrator Wiltz Cutrer sought a new solution and chose to implement a scalable ExaGrid system to work with their Veeam backup application.

By deploying ExaGrid's tiered backup storage, Nucor Steel Jackson cut its backup windows in half and enabled rapid data restores from the system's landing zone. The scalable ExaGrid solution avoided expensive upgrades and provided seamless replication to a disaster recovery site. The customer also highlighted ExaGrid's superior support and easy-to-manage reporting as key benefits that ensured their data was safe and secure.
