Challenge

To enhance business continuity planning (BCP), Showa Denko decided to replace an on-premises backup appliance with Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3).

Solution

Showa Denko selected Veritas NetBackup for daily backup operations in the AWS environment. The company used Amazon Web Services (AWS) Snowball to smoothly migrate its large volume of backup data. Advanced deduplication technology in Veritas NetBackup and NetBackup Appliances, which enables AWS coordination, helped ensure success for the backup environment migration.

Outcome

The company increased IT agility, reliability, and scalability by moving to AWS. Including NetBackup in the solution ensures data is protected and available.
