Case Study: Stadtwerke Potsdam achieves reliable, high-performance backup across 1,000+ VMs with SEP Software

Stadtwerke Potsdam - Customer Case Study

Stadtwerke Potsdam, the municipal utility for Potsdam, needed to protect a large, heterogeneous IT landscape that supports city services and daily life. Their environment includes multi‑hypervisor platforms (VMware and Citrix Hypervisor), more than 1,000 virtual machines, Linux, Windows and OES servers, Oracle databases, and an Exchange DAG with over 1,400 mailboxes. To meet this challenge they selected SEP Software’s SEP sesam backup software to deliver broad, high‑performance protection across all systems.

SEP Software implemented SEP sesam to provide unified, versatile backups across virtual, physical and application environments, backed by hands‑on support praised by Stadtwerke Potsdam’s Head of IT. The solution now protects the full estate—covering >1,000 VMs, Oracle instances and the Exchange DAG with >1,400 mailboxes—improving data protection and operational continuity while delivering the performance and expert support Stadtwerke Potsdam required.
