Case Study: Denver Broncos Football Club achieves 24/7 data availability and faster decision-making with Veeam Availability Suite

The Denver Broncos Put Data Availability in the Playbook with Veeam

The Denver Broncos, a leading NFL franchise, depend on digitized playbooks, scouting databases and game-day systems to make split-second decisions during the draft, training camp and on game day. When slow, unreliable legacy backup put player selection, stadium operations (ticketing, POS, video and Wi‑Fi) and regulatory compliance at risk, the team needed a faster, more dependable way to keep critical data available.

The Broncos replaced legacy backup with Veeam Availability Suite, backing up 100 VMware vSphere VMs to NetApp FAS storage and planning cloud DR for the near future. Veeam delivers 24/7/365 data availability, enterprise scalability to protect growing petabytes, simplified recovery and compliance reporting—enabling faster decision making during the draft, completion of their virtualization initiative and improved disaster-recovery readiness.
