Case Study: Granules India Limited achieves 95% faster backups and rapid recovery with Veeam Backup & Replication

Granules India Limited uses Veeam solutions to accelerate mission-critical backups by 95%, protecting digital business processes from cyber-attackers

Granules India Limited, a Hyderabad‑based pharmaceutical manufacturer, is modernizing operations with IIoT and digital workflows across manufacturing, R&D and quality control. As data became central to production, the company faced slow, manually intensive tape-based backups stored alongside production systems and only single point‑in‑time copies — exposing it to ransomware, extended downtime and reputational risk.

Granules deployed Veeam Backup & Replication with partner Digital Track Solutions to implement a 3-2-1-1-0 strategy, backing up 12 TB across on‑site tape, off‑site tape and AWS and protecting 40 servers. The change cut daily backup time from ~4 hours to 10 minutes (≈95% faster), reduced restore time from 3 hours to 30 minutes (≈83% faster), and saved about 20 person‑hours per week while providing multiple offline recovery points to mitigate cyberattacks.
