50%

reduced backup windows

At the end of the day, we trust Cohesity to protect our most valuable data assets. Now we not only receive files with video and stats from our own major and minor league operations, but also additional files from MLB. This has caused multifold data growth every year, and since this information is used to make franchise decisions and affects if we win on the field, the ability to easily access data quickly at any moment was imperative.

David Woolley, Senior Director, Network Operations, SF Giants

At a Glance

Since deploying Cohesity, the Giants have seen significant time and cost savings across the IT organization by implementing a cloud-integrated backup solution.

Challenge

The Giant’s replicated their data to an off-site co-location facility causing issues with speed and data recovery. It was clear their legacy solution would not accommodate their significant influx of data.

Solution

The Giants deployed Cohesity DataPlatform and Cohesity DataProtect with C2300 hyperconverged nodes for an optimal and cutting-edge solution

Result

The Giants organization has seen a 50% reduction in overall backup windows, as well as a cost savings of more than $15K per year from elimination of co-location and reduced maintenance and service costs.
