Organization A healthcare organization dealing with countrywide clientele and large volumes of sensitive data. Their main hospital is in North America, in addition to a branch in South America.

Industry Healthcare

Challenges The organization was dealing with highly sensitive data of patients and could not afford to lose it at any cost. The organization only had on premise data backup which was not sufficient to guarantee the high redundancy and availability of data. For this purpose they needed a redundant data backup solution preferably which offered a 3-2-1 backup rule to make sure that the data is protected and is available even if they are hit by a disaster or a failure.

Another challenge for the organization was to get a data backup solution in the form of a server which could run on their existing infrastructure. There were two reasons for that. One, that they wanted cost effectiveness and did not want to buy the entire infrastructure. Secondly, the effort and time which would be required to learn and adapt to the new architecture would prove troublesome. They wanted a solution that can integrate the cloud to their existing data storage infrastructure, so that the time and effort of implementation and adapting is saved.

The need for a cloud solution which allows them to write their data on a trustable and compliant cloud required a solution that was compatible with the best of the clouds in the market. This was necessary for the reason that the data of the patients was sensitive and highly mission critical for the organization and no discrepancy or misuse of the data could be afforded. That is why they needed a trustworthy, authentic and compliant cloud to put their data in.

Solution StoneFly SCVM was the best solution for the organization as it not only provided a server but a complete solution for the organization with integration to the existing data storage infrastructure which the organization already had in place. Secondly, StoneFly SCVM is compatible with the market’s leading and compliant Cloud Vendors like Microsoft Azure, which was the requirement of the organization.
