Customer Challenge:

  1. The customer needed a backup gateway solution where the customer
    can store the data from local server to cloud storage in cost effective
    storage and can access the data as per the requirement. Before giving the
    solution, customer was taking the backup in the local system where there is
    additional drive to store the data and if they want to use the data then
    customer need to attach the storage in the local system.

    want to store in the cost effective storage and customer want to use
    this data as per the need and should be highly available.
