Case Study: Azzurri Group achieves minutes-level recovery and continuous BI data availability with Veeam Backup & Replication

Azzurri Group Protects Business Intelligence Data with Veeam

Azzurri Group, a UK market leader in Italian casual dining (brands include ASK Italian and Zizzi), relies on IBM Cognos and a SQL data platform for point-in-time BI that drives daily restaurant decisions. Their existing backup solution lacked replication, meaning critical BI data recovery in a crisis could take days and put operations and brand performance at risk.

Azzurri implemented Veeam Backup & Replication to back up and replicate 10 TB across 60 VMware VMs on‑premises, off‑site and to AWS, enabling replica failover and reducing recovery times from days to minutes; SureReplica validates restore points and they are evaluating Veeam Availability Orchestrator to automate DR testing. The outcome: protected BI data, minimal downtime, automated BC/DR testing and greater operational resilience and peace of mind.
