Case Study: Seven Network achieves streamlined protection of 500TB across hybrid multicloud with Veeam

Seven Network keeps data protected across multiple cloud platforms from Veeam

Seven Network, part of Seven West Media and Australia’s second-largest free-to-air broadcaster reaching about 17 million people monthly, needed reliable, round‑the‑clock access to audience analytics, advertising and media systems spread across two data centers, 15 regional sites and multiple public and private clouds. Its legacy tape-based backup could not keep up with hundreds of terabytes of distributed data and growing hybrid-cloud workloads, creating risk to business continuity and decision-making.

Using Veeam Data Platform and Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365, Seven now centrally protects more than 500 TB across 400+ VMs and cloud services, backing up to on‑prem HPE StoreOnce and off‑site cloud storage (AWS) for disaster recovery. The platform delivers near‑100% backup success and sub‑four‑hour RTOs, simplifies backup management across dozens of locations, saves the IT team about two hours a week on checks, and gives the company a single, cloud‑agnostic control point and greater flexibility for future change.
