Rubrik Adopted by HM Hospitales in Spain

HM Hospitales, a Spanish hospital group, has chooses Rubrik, Inc. to become its unified data management platform for backup, recovery, and archival across all locations.

HM Hospitales is a private hospital group that provides health care services in addition to research, continuing education and technological innovation. It currently has more than 4,000 professionals among its 14 hospitals, three centers specializing in Oncology, Cardiology and Neuroscience, and 21 polyclinics.

Due to the increasing complexity and rising costs being imposed by its legacy backup solution, HM Hospitales began looking for a data management solution to support its network of hospitals, patients and 400 VMs.

After deploying Rubrik, HM Hospitales was able to: 

• Achieve 96% management time savings, reducing the daily time spent on managing backup to 20 minutes from eight hours.
• Meet compliance requirements, such as Ley Orgánica de Protección de Datos (LOPD), by using SLA policies and backing up to NAS.
• Get up and running in weeks, in stark contrast to the years that HM Hospitales’ legacy solution took to deploy.
• Realize cost savings and a 33% reduction in TCO over the next five years.

Due to the successful initial implementation, HM Hospitals plans to expand its Rubrik deployment into new centers.

“Our previous backup solution was laborious and complex to administer; we had two systems from different manufacturers,” explains Arturo Gordo Carbajo, director of the department of security and systems, HM Hospitales. “Rubrik delivers the agility and simplicity required to support our patients and our business. With other legacy solutions, even after years, the implementation never ends. With Rubrik, we were ready and running in weeks instead of years. It’s a huge improvement.“

“Rubrik was the perfect solution for HM Hospitals,” said Raúl Alcázar, regional manager, Sicrom Servicios De Sistemas Y Comunicaciones SL, a company that provides consulting services, technology and outsourcing that support HM Hospitales digital transformation. “Our goal is to offer the most innovative technology on the market. For backup and data management, that is Rubrik. It is the leader in the backup revolution with a solution built for the modern era.“

“HM Hospitales is a critical healthcare provider used by thousands of patients across Spain,” said Karl Driesen, VP, EMEA, Rubrik. “Rubrik provides HM Hospitales with a backup solution purpose-built for agility and simplicity so its IT team can operate at peak performance and spend more time focusing on the needs and wellbeing of patients.“
