Case Study: Dedalus (healthcare software provider) achieves zero data loss and 60% reduction in backup administration with Veeam Data Platform

540 million people and counting: Dedalus supports life-saving care around the globe with zero data loss from Veeam

Dedalus, a Milan‑headquartered healthcare software provider whose solutions support diagnostics and treatment for more than 540 million people, faced increasing IT complexity as rapid mergers expanded it to roughly 75 companies across many countries. With billions of diagnostic results processed annually and strict regulatory and availability requirements, Dedalus needed a centralized, scalable data‑protection strategy to eliminate downtime risk, simplify diverse backup policies, and support continued growth.

Dedalus deployed the Veeam Data Platform (Advanced) and Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to centralize backup across three sites, protecting 5,000 virtual servers (≈1.5 PB) and over 570 TB of M365 data, using CDP for critical systems. The solution cut backup administration by 60%, enabled rapid system migrations (a 10 TB move in two days with zero interruption), removed barriers to integrating acquisitions, and reduced the risk of data loss to zero while enabling future SaaS ambitions.
