In 1950, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) established Galatz Radio to communicate military messages and bolster morale with 3 to 4 hours of programming each day. In 1993, IDF expanded programming to 24 hours per day when it added Galgalatz Radio for music and current events. Today, more than 56% of the country listens to the two stations.
Galatz Radio deployed Cloud Volumes ONTAP for Azure to provide cost-effective cloud backup and recovery for 130,000 hours of digitized radio archives going back to 1950.
