Case Study: Union Insurance Company achieves cost-effective disaster recovery with Microsoft Azure

UAE-based Union Insurance protects itself from business risk with Azure

Union Insurance Company, a UAE-based insurer, wanted greater control and security for disaster recovery while reducing the complexity and cost of protecting its mixed environment of VMware, Hyper-V, and physical servers. Working with Microsoft Azure and partner Spusht Technologies, the company looked for a cloud-secure DR solution that could improve business continuity and data protection.

Microsoft Azure Site Recovery was implemented to modernize Union Insurance Company’s disaster recovery setup with automation, integration, and scalability. The result was a 70% reduction in cloud DR operating costs, along with low RPO and RTO, smoother implementation, and the elimination of manual backup and archiving processes. Union Insurance Company also gained continuous monitoring, multiple recovery points, and the ability to test DR scenarios without disrupting the business.
