Case Study: Major German Bank achieves 13x faster development cycles with Veritas Technologies' storage management solutions

Major German Bank Achieves 13x Faster Development Cycles Supported by Veritas Storage Management Solutions

A major German retail bank known for fast growth and high customer satisfaction faced a twin challenge: maintain rock‑solid availability for critical services while accelerating the pace of innovation. The bank needed to simplify a complex infrastructure so product teams could move from large semiannual releases to more frequent, agile updates without risking downtime or recovery performance.

The bank deployed Veritas InfoScale and NetBackup to cluster critical services, speed storage performance, and automate backups and recoveries. The result: development cycles shortened from six months to two weeks (up to 13x faster), 99.98% availability with 5–15 minute failovers and a 2‑hour RTO, 99.9% backup success, about 200 hours of planned downtime avoided annually, and hundreds of IT staff hours freed for higher‑value work.
