Business Challenge

Elreef Elmasry is a company concerned with the reclamation and development of one and a half million acres as the first phase of a four million-acre project. It is a 100% Egyptian joint-stock company, with three government shareholders. It was established under Law No. 8 as an Egyptian joint-stock company. The company’s headquarters are located in Nasr City, Cairo, Arab Republic of Egypt. Its aim is to create new sustainable communities based on agriculture in new lands, agricultural manufacturing, services, and logistics in Egypt. The company operates on a scientific, technical, and economic approach, with a general plan for the entire project as an international model for sustainable development and environmental protection within the vision of Egypt 2030.

Elreef Elmasry’s enterprise encompasses multiple sectors, including agriculture and agricultural manufacturing, in addition to an extensive involvement in large-scale land development and management. They must process an expansive volume of data, including land usage and agricultural production statistics. Therefore, they necessitate a robust, resilient, and secure IT system to underpin their operations.

The comprehensive land development, management, and agricultural activities will invariably generate substantial volumes of data, necessitating regularly scheduled backups as insurance against potential data loss.

Additionally, given that agricultural production is exposed to multiple uncontrollable variables, such as weather fluctuations and pest invasions, the company needs to compile and analyze these data sets to effectively assess risk and devise appropriate countermeasures. This underscores the need for a reliable backup system that can swiftly restore lost or damaged data, thereby ensuring continuous business operations.
