The tourism complex uses Veeam’s technology to support IT services that help control and manage the backup process and provides full data protection.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The business <\/strong>challenge<\/strong>  <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Tequila, Jalisco, has become a major tourist destination in Mexico. In just one weekend, Mundo Cuervo, a tourist complex, registered up to 2,500 visitors simultaneously using the different services the organization offers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of business growth, technological services are a fundamental pillar, which means that IT infrastructure expansion and streamlining are necessary. This has been achieved through a virtualization strategy, allowing them to have flexibility in developing new tools in a matter of hours to create test environments or to meet the needs of the operating areas.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, 11 virtual servers cover the needs of the company\u2019s facilities, generating 6 TB of business data every single day.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salvador Guzm\u00e1n, IT Coordinator, Mundo Cuervo, said: \u201cGiven the business profile, it is important for our technology be unseen by the visitor, leaving the spotlight on the beauty of the place and the experiences it offers, while remaining the basis for the quality of the services offered by Mundo Cuervo.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Jos\u00e9 Cuervo Express and the hotels located in the tourism complex, this means that having up-to-date information is of the utmost importance given that sales are recorded via the Mundo Cuervo website. This is why it is vital that data and applications are always available. It is of major importance for IT that in the event of system downtime or failure, the recovery process takes no more than two hours, no matter the environment or the time of day.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Veeam solution<\/strong>  <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Since 2017, with the support of CompuCAD, one of Veeam\u2019s business partners, Mundo Cuervo has been using Veeam technology to support the IT services that the department headed by Guzm\u00e1n manage, to ensure the business\u2019 on-going operations.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially, Veeam was going to be used to backup the company\u2019s virtual servers, given the levels of accuracy and reliability it required, all of which were fully covered by Veeam. However, the IT Coordinator added: \u201cWe extended our use of the solution to cover Office 365 as well as end-points, providing ourselves with a massive umbrella that allows us to fully place our trust in the storage and protection of our data. We have also been able to access and recover from specific scenarios thanks to Veeam.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Veeam is not only being used for the data center that encompasses all of Mundo Cuervo\u2019s facilities.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDuring 2018, after seeing for ourselves the outstanding capacity of the product, we replicated the platform at our corporate offices, which we recently inaugurated in Mexico City, where we have four virtual servers and manage a total of 3 TB of information,\u201d he added.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Veeam model that the company has implemented is based on hardware that backs up its servers in real time, ensuring that in the event of any system failures, they can respond immediately with an alternate copy.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a result of any event or error, we can restore data from comprehensive copies using the last incremental backup in a matter of minutes, meaning that the business continues to run transparently for both our operating areas and, more importantly, for our customers,\u201d explained Guzm\u00e1n.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Veeam, the service downtime has decreased to just a few minutes. According to Guzm\u00e1n, the best part is the simplicity of the tool in facilitating the recovery process, given that the Veeam console quickly identifies the exact time to be recovered for application testing or even to roll back to a specific operating point.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, the speed of the backup and recovery process is another major advantage that Guzm\u00e1n feels is of huge importance.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVeeam, simply put, saves us every single day as we no longer have to worry about restoring copies. We have also become faster in executing backups by using the incremental backup strategy. It is because of these features that we are able to say that we are always available and downtime tolerant,\u201d he added.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from all these advantages, the greatest value Veeam offers Mundo Cuervo is that its processes help drive operational flexibility and better customer service.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genoveva Garc\u00eda, Marketing and Communications Manager, Mundo Cuervo, talked about how Veeam has helped its reservation process become easier and more efficient, allowing it to better respond to the needs of their customers in a more flexible manner, helping ensure customer loyalty and trust.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The results<\/strong>  <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
  • Speed, simplicity and reliability for backup, restoration and recovery processes.\u00a0<\/strong>With the previous tool, the company spent three hours in the backup process, but now, thanks to Veeam, this only takes 15 minutes. Restorations that used to take half a day can now be finished in just a few minutes and instead of having three people working on this task, only one person is now needed. But that is not all. \u201cThe major element is the trust we now have in the efficiency of our backups, knowing that we can pinpoint any moment in time that we need to recover,\u201d added Guzm\u00e1n.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>
  • First-class services for both internal users and customers.\u00a0<\/strong>Ensuring high data availability is a priority for the IT department at Mundo Cuervo as its visitors come first. That is why ensuring the backup process is as fast as possible to help better tackle any problems is a major differentiating factor that Guzm\u00e1n has found in Veeam, given that it guarantees optimum service delivery to both business areas and, as a result, customers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>
  • Storage space savings thanks to one of the best compression solutions on the market. \u201c<\/strong>The write speed that Veeam offers is extremely fast compared to other applications, especially when dealing with virtual environments. However, what has surprised me the most is its high compression rate. This Veeam tool is one of the best on the market as it allows us to store more backup information without having to invest much disk space,\u201d concluded Guzm\u00e1n.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Challenge<\/strong>  <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Given that Mundo Cuervo has become a national tourist destination, more and more people are using its services. Ensuring outstanding customer service is of fundamental importance to the company.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As such, the major responsibilities of its IT department include ensuring and maintaining the high availability of its data services, helping the operations areas offer the best possible experience to its customers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Solution<\/strong>  <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Mundo Cuervo uses Veeam Backup and Replication, Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 and Veeam Endpoint Backup, which help it control and manage the backup process for its virtualization environment, provide full protection and access to its Office 365 data and easily backup all portable and end-user equipment, in addition to implementing the recovery process, if necessary.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
