Case Study: Huntington Beach Union High School District achieves unlimited licensing, lower costs and simpler backups with Infrascale

HBUHSD Liberates Itself from Backup Exec with Infrascale’s Simple Product and Pricing

Huntington Beach Union High School District (HBUHSD) serves more than 16,000 students across five high schools with a staff of about 500 teachers. The district was frustrated by their existing Backup Exec solution: high and growing licensing fees, complexity, and a lack of confidence that mission‑critical data on physical and virtual servers was adequately protected — all while needing to stay within tight budget constraints.

HBUHSD deployed Infrascale’s Cloud Connected Appliance, gaining unlimited software licensing, an intuitive management GUI, and scalable hardware that can grow with their needs. They installed appliances at two sites with active‑to‑active replication for disaster recovery, cut licensing complexity and costs, and found the solution easy to use and cost‑effective for protecting critical applications and data.
