Case Study: Siemens minimizes manufacturing plant downtime with Veeam Data Platform

Siemens and Veeam prepare for the Fourth Industrial Revolution by minimizing manufacturing plant downtime

Siemens Digital Industries, a global leader in industrial automation, needed a robust data-protection solution for its Industrial Automation DataCenter to ensure high availability and cybersecurity across diverse customer environments. With manufacturing downtime costing customers millions per day, Siemens sought a trusted, flexible backup service that would preserve plant performance and its own reputation.

Siemens selected Veeam Data Platform and launched a packaged Backup & Restore service—using Veeam APIs for a simplified, "set-and-forget" experience with options like 36 TB disk and optional tape redundancy. The offering has been adopted by more than 200 customers, extending Siemens’ services, minimizing critical plant downtime, and boosting resilience and growth opportunities in the process industry.
