Century Savings Bank Data Backup and Recovery Case Study

This case study details the experience of Century Savings Bank in addressing their data backup and recovery challenges. The bank previously relied on EVault and onsite NAS devices, which limited their operational capabilities and posed risks during downtime. The Network Manager, William Estlow, recognized the need for a more robust solution and discovered Quorum at a Data Connector conference. After implementing Quorum, the bank achieved a high-availability solution, allowing for an instant one-to-one copy of their onsite server. This capability ensured that if the primary server failed, recovery could occur swiftly, minimizing downtime and data loss. The case study highlights a specific incident where a bare metal restore was completed in under two hours, demonstrating Quorum's effectiveness. Estlow emphasizes the reduced stress and increased protection Quorum provides, including ransomware protection, allowing for quick restoration to a point before an attack. Overall, the implementation of Quorum significantly improved the bank's data management and recovery processes.
