Case Study: Ivy League University Saves Big on Storage Costs with Wasabi Technologies

Ivy League University Saves Big on Storage Costs with Wasabi

Ivy League University needed a scalable, cost-effective way to manage growing archives, research data, and backups without relying on expensive tape refreshes or hyperscaler storage fees. The university found that AWS storage and transfer charges, including egress and API request costs, made cloud archiving difficult to scale, so it turned to Wasabi Technologies for hot cloud storage as part of a hybrid cloud approach.

Wasabi Technologies helped the university implement a solution using Wasabi hot cloud storage with NetApp, Komprise, and Veritas NetBackup, plus Wasabi Account Control Manager and Wasabi 10G Direct Connect. The result was a simpler, faster hybrid storage environment with better visibility and security controls, no ingress or egress fees, and one-quarter of the previous storage cost, while also improving transfer performance for backups and archive data.
