LONDON and PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug.
21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Rubrik, the Cloud Data
Management company, today announced that it has been selected by
the Museum of London to protect
and manage data across its physical and virtual environments.
Rubrik is delivering an all-in-one data management solution for
backup, disaster recovery and archival, which has already achieved
lower costs and higher performance.
Established in 1976, the Museum of London showcases the history of the English
capital city from prehistoric to modern times. Its two locations,
the Museum of London and the
Museum of London Docklands, together contain more than six million
artifacts and attract over a million visitors each year.
The museum's IT team of eight relies on technology to protect
and scale the establishment's digital collections. Previously, the
team struggled with a legacy backup solution that was increasingly
complex, time consuming, costly, and difficult to operate. On top
of that, the team had to manage an expensive disaster recovery
solution with SAN to SAN storage replication.
The museum's collections database runs on an Oracle database,
managed by an outside administrator. This made complex Oracle
restores difficult and time consuming. With Rubrik's Oracle
Recovery Manager (RMAN) integrated solution, the Museum of
London team can now instantly find
Oracle backups and quickly recover from any point-in-time.
"Rubrik brought a fresh approach to data protection," said
Adam Monnery, Head of Information
and Communications Technology at the Museum of London. "Previously, our key objective was
putting in place the right infrastructure to enable us to protect
and scale our massive digital collection. Now, we're focused on
delivering value back to the business. This means adopting
collaboration tools, mobilizing our workforce, and enabling our
business to work cross-functionally. Rubrik is a critical piece of
that puzzle."
After deploying Rubrik, the Museum of London was able to:
- Minimize downtime and reduce restore time by 90%. With the
legacy solution, it would take a minimum of two days to restore a
file from tape, now with Rubrik it only takes minutes.
- Reduce time spent managing the environment by 90%. The team has
gone from spending 15 hours a week monitoring backups to just one
hour a week, creating more time to invest in automation and
strategic initiatives that drive greater business value.
- Easily and efficiently access SQL backup reports to ensure that
there were no failures with Rubrik's native integration for SQL
Server.
- Replace its existing secondary disaster recovery SAN storage,
reducing infrastructure costs.
- Explore replication in the cloud for a stronger disaster
recovery strategy moving forward. Rubrik is vendor-agnostic and
cloud-native, giving the Museum of London the flexibility to scale to any cloud
and avoid vendor lock-in.
"We're proud to help the Museum of London protect their digital collection and
prepare for a cloud future," said Martin
Brown, Director of Western
Europe at Rubrik. "Because Rubrik delivers simple management
and rapid time to value, the Museum of London is now able to preserve the past using
the latest state-of-the-art cloud data management
technology."
