SDV Solves Backup Failure for Industrial Manufacturer & Positions Them for Cloud Migration
The Challenge
The Customer had all mission critical servers and applications housed in the HQ location, which supported six other locations throughout the Midwest. The HQ location did not have redundant power supply or internet access, battery backup or fire suppression. The Customer’s current DR solution had reached capacity, and not all servers were being backed up. The Customer did not have the ability to turn up their entire production server environment in the case of a long-term outage
The Situation
The Customer had a small IT Team and was relying on a new IT Director to make recommendations. The IT Director reached out to a new IT Partner to bring in some options. The IT Partner recommended Sky Data Vault. After an initial call with the IT Partner and the Customer, SDV conducted a thorough review of the Customer’s data protection and recovery requirements. SDV assessed the Customer’s situation, discussed industry standards, reviewed options in the marketplace and provided cost estimates for various services that could fit within the Customer’s annual budget.
The Solution
The service that aligned best with the Customer’s immediate goals was SDV’s fully-managed Backup as a Service (BaaS) for one simple monthly fee. This solution enabled the Customer to recover files and folders from the SDV environment at any time through the
SDV Agent portal. The Customer’s Data is ready on demand and there are never any egress fees.

Simultaneously, SDV’s BaaS solution addressed the Customer’s current backup failures and positioned them for future evolution and
