“Our county encompasses a wide diversity of geographical features that can pose serious risks to our infrastructure,” said LaValley. “We are located at the foothills of the Sierra Mountains and have three major river systems flowing through the county. Many municipal facilities are situated at lower elevations, making them susceptible to flooding from those rivers. We are also downriver from the Oroville Dam, which holds over a trillion tons of water. In addition to the flooding concerns, Yuba County is also impacted by the threat of wildfires.”
“In 2017, we experienced a spillway crisis with the Oroville Dam that triggered a failure evacuation and led us to take a hard look at our disaster recovery preparedness,” said LaValley. “Data loss would have serious repercussions from a state funding perspective and our only protection was replication between data centers. We wanted to implement an efficient cloud backup and recovery solution that also addressed our on-premises requirements.”
“Our trusted partner, ePlus, recommended Rubrik after we had described our issues with our previous system. We have enjoyed working with ePlus in the past and have utilized them for other portions of our infrastructure as well,” said LaValley. After conducting reference calls with other local government customers, LaValley and team chose Rubrik as their data management solution.
