Prioritize Digital Sovereignty and Eliminate CLOUD Act Risks

European businesses require data storage solutions that operate strictly under EU law. Storing data with non-EU providers creates significant risk, as foreign laws like the U.S. CLOUD Act can compel access to data stored in EU data centers. This directly conflicts with GDPR principles, which require a legal basis for transferring data outside the Union. A truly sovereign cloud guarantees data remains governed by EU law. Impossible Cloud operates exclusively in certified European data centers, offering country-level geofencing to ensure 100% of your data stays within a predefined region. This design provides the legal certainty needed for regulated workloads, as detailed in our GDPR compliance overview. This focus on legal and geographic control is the foundation of modern data strategy.

Achieve Predictable Cloud Costs by Eliminating Egress Fees

Unexpected data transfer fees are a major pain point for IT budgets. Egress fees can constitute over 10% of total cloud costs, making financial forecasting difficult for thousands of companies. A transparent pricing model is essential for predictable margins, especially for Managed Service Providers (MSPs). Our platform eliminates these variable costs entirely. We offer zero egress fees, zero API call costs, and no minimum storage duration, a model proven to reduce TCO by over 20%. This approach ensures your cloud storage pricing is simple and predictable. With costs under control, you can focus on seamless operational performance.

Ensure Seamless Integration with 100% S3 API Compatibility

Migrating to a new storage platform should not require rewriting applications. Full S3 API compatibility ensures your existing tools, scripts, and backup software continue to work without modification. This protects decades of investment in your current IT ecosystem. Our S3-compatible object storage goes beyond basic operations, supporting advanced capabilities for complex workflows. Here is what full compatibility delivers:

• Support for versioning and lifecycle management across 100% of objects.
• Seamless operation with leading backup tools like Veeam and NovaBackup.
• Full functionality for your existing API, CLI, and SDK-based automation scripts.
• Zero code rewrites needed for your applications to connect and run.
• Protection for your IT team's 10,000+ hours of training on S3 tools.

This level of compatibility is key to building a resilient defense against data loss.

Build Resilient Ransomware Protection with Immutable Storage

Ransomware remains a top threat, with attacks targeting backup data in over 96% of incidents. Immutable storage, or Object Lock, is your last line of defense. It makes data unchangeable for a set period, preventing encryption or deletion by malicious actors. This ensures a clean, recoverable copy of your data is always available. Our platform integrates immutable backups as a core feature, allowing you to secure critical data for regulatory compliance and disaster recovery. Implementing a 3-2-1 backup strategy with one immutable copy significantly improves your security posture. This robust protection is part of a high-performance architecture.

Leverage an Enterprise-Ready, Always-Hot Architecture

Complex storage tiers create operational fragility and hidden costs. An "Always-Hot" architecture ensures every object is immediately accessible, eliminating restore delays that impact RTOs by hours. This model avoids the performance issues of tiered systems, where retrieving archived data can take up to 12 hours. Our architecture is built for consistency and scale, delivering predictable low latency for millions of files. Key architectural benefits include:

1. Strong read/write consistency for data integrity under mixed workloads.
2. Multi-AZ replication, which eliminates single points of failure across 3 sites.
3. Predictable latencies under 50 milliseconds for responsive applications.
4. Immediate data access with zero tier-restore delays or fees.

This resilient foundation is essential for meeting future regulatory demands.

Meet 2025 EU Regulatory Demands by Design

The European regulatory landscape is evolving with two key directives. The EU Data Act, applicable from September 2025, mandates data portability to prevent vendor lock-in. Our platform is designed for this, with open standards that ensure you can always move your data. The NIS-2 Directive requires continuous security processes across the supply chain for critical sectors. Our operations incorporate these principles, including robust vulnerability management and incident reporting within 24 hours. This readiness makes our object storage a competitive advantage for your business. It also creates new opportunities for our partners.

Empower MSPs and Channel Partners with a Predictable Model

For MSPs and resellers, predictable margins are critical for success. Our partner-ready platform is built on a "predictable by design" model with zero egress or API fees. This allows partners to build BaaS and archiving services with defensible margins of over 30%. The multi-tenant console provides robust IAM controls, including RBAC and MFA for thousands of users. With distribution momentum from partners like api in Germany and Northamber plc in the UK, we are expanding local access for hundreds of resellers. This makes our German hyperscaler alternative a strong choice for the channel.
