Case Study: Online Backup Company achieves faster, scalable cloud backup growth with Huawei OceanStor N8000

Online Backup in Europe Relies on Huawei N8000

Online Backup Company (OBC), Norway’s fastest-growing online backup and disaster recovery provider, was struggling to expand storage capacity and keep up with strict SLA requirements as customer demand surged across Europe. Its existing storage system had reached its limit, performance was dropping under heavy I/O traffic, and growing volumes of small unstructured files were wasting valuable disk space.

To solve this, OBC selected Huawei OceanStor N8000/N8300 clustered NAS storage alongside Asigra cloud backup software. Huawei’s solution handled hundreds of millions of small files efficiently, delivered strong performance, and supported scalable capacity for primary and disaster-recovery sites. As a result, OBC improved onboarding speed, won new enterprise contracts, and gained a storage platform that can scale up to 15 PB while supporting its expansion into new markets.
