Enhancing Customer Experience for a Global Pharmaceutical Company

A leading global pharmaceutical company, with annual revenues exceeding $11 billion, needed to elevate its customer experience by deploying its Sitecore-based platform across the EU and United States. Seepath set up dedicated development, test, and production infrastructure in Azure, taking the solution from test to production in just 3 months. The platform — including a healthcare provider portal used by clinicians across the EU and US — has been reliably managed by Seepath since 2014.

Partnership Highlights

The successful delivery earned Seepath an expanded mandate within the organization — additional business units engaged Seepath as their Azure managed services partner, extending a partnership now in its twelfth year.

Backup & Disaster Recovery for a Leading Credit Union

A leading financial institution in New England, facing compliance mandates and an inadequate tape-based backup strategy, partnered with Seepath to transform its disaster recovery posture. With 50+ VMware virtual machines running on-premises, the organization needed real-time protection and a DR site it could stand up in days — not months — at a fraction of the cost of a traditional co-location facility.

Seepath deployed Azure Site Recovery (ASR) and Azure Backup Server (MABS), replicating on-premises VMware workloads to Azure and reducing RTO/RPO from days to minutes. The DR site was operational in days, met all regulatory compliance requirements, and is actively managed by Seepath around the clock.

When we thought about how long it would take to recover from a disaster, it was obvious that our recovery time would be measured in days or weeks instead of hours.

Case Study: Backup & Disaster Recovery for a Leading Credit Union

When we thought about how long it would take to recover from a disaster, it was obvious that our recovery time would be measured in days or weeks instead of hours.

— A leading credit union, New England

Introduction

In 2018, a leading financial institution in New England faced an urgent need for a robust Disaster Recovery (DR) solution, compelled by evolving compliance requirements. Their existing DR strategy, reliant on an on-premise tape backup solution, was proving inadequate and failed to meet their critical Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO).

Challenge

  • Compliance Gaps: The existing tape-based solution did not satisfy stringent regulatory compliance mandates for data recovery and business continuity.

  • Unacceptable RTO/RPO: Tape backups resulted in RTO and RPO measured in days, posing a significant risk to operations in the event of a disaster.

  • Lack of Real-time Protection: The large VMware estate was vulnerable due to the absence of continuous data replication and rapid failover capabilities.

  • Operational Inefficiencies: Manual tape management was cumbersome and not scalable for their needs.

Solution

Following a thorough Azure assessment, Seepath designed and implemented a comprehensive DR solution leveraging Microsoft Azure services:

  • Azure Site Recovery (ASR): Deployed ASR to enable replication of the on-premise VMware virtual machines to Azure, providing automated failover capabilities.

  • Optimized RTO/RPO: The solution was architected to significantly reduce RTO and RPO from days down to minutes.

  • Ongoing Managed Services: Seepath provides ongoing management and monitoring of the DR environment to ensure its readiness and effectiveness.

Results

The Azure-based DR solution delivered transformative outcomes for the credit union:

  • Dramatically Improved RTO/RPO: Achieved RTO/RPO objectives in minutes, significantly enhancing business resilience and minimizing potential downtime.

  • Compliance Adherence: The new solution successfully met all regulatory compliance requirements for disaster recovery and data protection.

  • Enhanced Data Security: Robust replication and backup to Azure ensured critical data was protected and readily recoverable.

  • Increased Operational Efficiency: Automation of DR processes reduced manual effort and improved overall DR posture.

  • Continued Reliability: The solution is currently managed by Seepath, ensuring ongoing optimal performance and support.

Conclusion

Seepath's expertise in Azure enabled the leading national credit union to transition from an outdated and inadequate tape backup system to a modern, resilient, and compliant disaster recovery solution.
