Case Study: Roswell Park Cancer Institute achieves fast, reliable recovery and massive storage savings with Veeam Backup Management Suite

Healthcare Enterprise Needs Enterprise-level Backup and Recovery

Roswell Park Cancer Institute, a long-established cancer center, was running 450+ VMware vSphere VMs that supported mission‑critical systems like EMR and Exchange. Their existing backup tools were slow, frequently failed or couldn’t finish within the backup window, consumed excessive storage, and left the IT team unable to guarantee fast restores needed for HIPAA and other regulatory requirements.

The IT team deployed Veeam Backup Management Suite (Veeam Backup & Replication plus Veeam ONE) with an HP StoreOnce appliance, gaining much faster, more reliable backups and proactive monitoring. Results included backing up all VMs within the window, restoring a VM in 14 minutes versus 2 hours previously, reducing stored backup data from 85 TB to 15 TB through deduplication/compression, and lowering software and support costs (suite ~40% cheaper than prior licenses; support 50–60% less).
