GameStop Data Protection Transformation Case Study

This case study details how GameStop Corp. leveraged the Druva Cloud Platform to transform its data protection strategy and reduce operational costs. GameStop, a global retailer with over 7,200 stores, faced challenges with its legacy on-premises backup infrastructure, which had become complex and costly. The company adopted a cloud-first directive, aiming to migrate its business processes to the cloud within 24 months. The Druva Cloud Platform provided a solution that included Druva inSync for endpoint backup and Druva Phoenix for enterprise server workloads. As a result, GameStop achieved a 70% reduction in backup and recovery operating expenses and increased its data protection footprint for virtual environments by 20%. The implementation also facilitated compliance with data residency regulations across 14 regions, saving over $1 million. The case study highlights the effectiveness of Druva's cloud-native approach in simplifying data management and enhancing operational efficiency.
