Case Study: Chelsea Groton Bank reduces WAN traffic and storage costs with F3 Technology Partners and NetApp/Veeam integration

Chelsea Groton Bank - Customer Case Study

Chelsea Groton Bank, a Groton, Connecticut banking institution with more than 160 years of customer relationships, needed to protect the availability of critical VMs supporting its customer call center, document imaging system, and email. To reduce downtime risk and shorten RTPO, the bank worked with F3 Technology Partners on a data protection solution involving NetApp and Veeam integration.

F3 Technology Partners implemented a storage refresh and backup approach using NetApp SnapMirror to the DR site with Veeam Instant VM Recovery. This cut WAN traffic by 50%, saving about $1,000 per month in bandwidth, and reduced replication storage requirements by 50%, saving Chelsea Groton Bank $25,000 in storage space.
