Case Study: Schomburg achieves Absolute Immutability and cuts IT overhead with Object First

Schomburg cuts IT overhead by 80% with Object First

Schomburg GmbH & Co. KG, a German manufacturer of construction chemicals, faced significant challenges with its legacy backup architecture. The system introduced high administrative overhead and performance bottlenecks, but most critically, it lacked immutability, leaving the company's backup data exposed to ransomware threats. Schomburg partnered with Object First to implement its Ootbi immutable storage appliance to address these issues.

By deploying Object First's purpose-built solution, Schomburg eliminated a complex intermediate server layer, simplifying its backup environment. The results included a dramatic 80% reduction in IT administrative overhead, significantly improved backup and restore performance, and the achievement of Absolute Immutability, ensuring their data is now fully protected from ransomware.
