Inc., in VM backup solutions, announced that Bradburys Ltd. – a cheese distributor in United Kingdom – has chosen Nakivo
Backup & Replication to protect their virtual machines.
With Nakivo Backup & Replication, Bradburys has reduced projected downtime
in case of a disaster from 12 hours to just 10 minutes.
Since 1884, Bradburys sources and
distributes a range of superior cheeses from the UK and Europe.
Over the years, it has won international and local awards for
the cheeses that they supply, including the Nantwich Gold
award for the last 3 years running. The company works with many
cheese producers to provide a route to the market. Bradburys focuses on
marketing, accreditations, packaging, and labeling in order to supply its products to the UK and international supermarket chains and
select independent customers.
In 2011, Bradburys decided virtualize their
infrastructure.
"After the project was complete we
realized that whilst we were backing up using our legacy solution we did not
have any software in place that would replicate the critical production servers
across to our DR site," said Greg Buccheri, IT manager at Bradburys.
"As our systems are quite diverse,
it became apparent that any disaster would mean at least 12 hours of downtime."
The company looked at and tried many
different solutions searching for one that would not only cover their needs but
that would also give them a good ROI. After a search and evaluation,
Bradburys has chosen Nakivo Backup & Replication.
"We evaluated other leading VM
backup and DR solutions but selected Nakivo Backup & Replication for its
ability to deliver a 2X to 8X greater ROI versus other available offerings. The
unique combination of price, performance, and time saving functionality made Nakivo
Backup & Replication the clear winner for protecting our business critical
applications and services," added Greg.
Bradburys now also utilizes Nakivo
Backup & Replication as their single solution for backing up, replicating,
and protecting their virtualized infrastructure. Bradburys has reduced their RTO by 99% while also reaching a new lower RPO of just one minute to
better support their VMware environment of Microsoft and Oracle applications.
