Case Study: ASL Airlines France achieves ransomware protection and 52% TCO savings with Rubrik Polaris

ASL Airlines France Combats Ransomware and Unifies Global Management with Rubrik Polaris

ASL Airlines France is a cargo and passenger carrier operating from Paris-CDG that supports major delivery partners and a 150‑aircraft fleet. The IT team needed always-on access to mission‑critical systems—especially an Oracle database that, if unavailable, could ground flights or incur fines—but their legacy backup solution produced slow, complex recoveries, lacked centralized management across sites, couldn’t integrate with cloud, and offered weak ransomware protection.

The airline deployed Rubrik Polaris (with GPS, Edge and Radar) to enable fast, granular Oracle recoveries, global centralized management, vendor‑agnostic multi‑cloud support, and native immutability with AI‑driven ransomware detection. The result: 3x faster restores, 52% TCO savings, 90% less management time, a 66% smaller data‑center footprint, seamless Nutanix integration, near‑zero RTOs and approval for cyber insurance—greatly reducing downtime risk and operational complexity.
