Challenges

During the pandemic, the number of remote workers at Afni ballooned from 30 to 8,000, placing strain on the company's VDI environment. Legacy storage became an issue, limiting VDI performance. The company also faced a ransomware attack. While its backups were unaffected, pulling backup volumes from the cloud into production data centers was very slow, ultimately taking three weeks to achieve 100% recovery status.

Results

Business Transformation

Reduced time needed to restore 500+ servers after a ransomware attack from three weeks to three hours
Accelerated VDI performance to support 8,000 remote workers
Rolled out new array and started hosting VMs in two hours

IT Transformation

Used deduplication and compression to reduce data by 70%, resulting in cost savings during migration
Eliminated latency issues affecting performance
Met internal SLAs by minimizing outages of more than 15 minutes

“Backup isn't enough. You need to have a solid recovery option. Combining data protection solutions together with flash storage from Pure Storage has really been a game-changer.”
