This case study details the implementation of the ExaGrid-Veeam solution at Sorbonne University Abu Dhabi, a higher education institution established in 2006. The university, which has seen significant growth in student enrollment, faced challenges in managing increasing data volumes. To modernize its backup storage and ensure compliance with industry standards, the university evaluated various solutions and ultimately selected ExaGrid Tiered Backup Storage for its integration with Veeam and performance capabilities. The ExaGrid system features a disk-cache Landing Zone for fast backup and restore, alongside comprehensive security measures to protect against ransomware. Post-implementation, the university experienced improved backup speeds and efficiency due to ExaGrid's unique architecture and adaptive deduplication. The case study also highlights the proactive support provided by ExaGrid, which has contributed to smoother operations and system management. Overall, the ExaGrid-Veeam solution has enabled the university to effectively manage its data retention policies while enhancing backup performance.
