Eliminate Unpredictable Costs from Your Backup Strategy

Most enterprises struggle with surprise egress fees, which can account for 10% to 15% of a total cloud bill. These charges for data retrieval create massive budget uncertainty for any effective backup strategy. Our model is predictable by design, eliminating 100% of egress fees and API call costs.

This transparent approach typically reduces cloud storage expenses by 60-80%. Organizations can restore petabytes of data without facing a five-figure bill for the transfer. Predictable pricing makes budget planning finally possible. This shift from punitive to predictable economics is the first step in modernizing data protection.

Build a Ransomware-Proof Foundation with Immutability

Ransomware attacks increasingly target backup infrastructure, making immutable storage a non-negotiable defense. In fact, 75% of IT organizations will face one or more cyberattacks by 2025. Our solution provides Immutable Storage via S3 Object Lock, making your backup data unchangeable and undeletable for a set period.

This creates a pristine, tamper-proof copy of your data that attackers cannot encrypt. An immutable backup is your last line of defense, ensuring a reliable recovery point. This approach turns your backup repository into a secure vault, ready for instant recovery after an attack. The core components of this defense are:

• Object Lock: Prevents data modification or deletion based on WORM (Write-Once-Read-Many) principles.
• Versioning: Keeps multiple versions of an object, allowing you to restore to a point-in-time before an attack.
• Access Controls: Granular IAM with MFA/RBAC restricts who can manage retention policies.
• Audit Logging: Provides a complete, traceable record of all data interactions for security and compliance.

This robust security posture is essential for maintaining business continuity in today's threat landscape.

Standardize on a Truly Compatible S3 API

Vendor lock-in creates significant strategic risk, trapping organizations with proprietary APIs and punitive egress fees. A core tenet of a modern backup strategy is data portability. Our platform is built on a fully compatible S3 API, ensuring your existing apps, scripts, and tools keep working with zero code rewrites.

This allows for a drop-in replacement; you only need to change the endpoint to migrate. Full S3 compatibility protects your past investments and minimizes migration risk. It ensures not just basic operations but also advanced capabilities like versioning and lifecycle management work seamlessly, giving you an exit strategy by design.

Leverage an "Always-Hot" Architecture for Faster Recovery

Complex storage tiering often leads to restore delays, API timeouts, and hidden retrieval fees. Our "Always-Hot" object storage model ensures all data is immediately accessible with no tier-restore delays. This architecture delivers up to 20% faster backup performance compared to traditional cloud storage.

An Always-Hot model simplifies operations and keeps recovery times predictable. It eliminates fragile lifecycle policies that can fail during an urgent restore. With this architecture, every byte of your backup data is ready for recovery at consistent low latency, strengthening your overall resilience.

A Predictable Model for MSPs and Channel Partners

For MSPs, resellers, and system integrators, unpredictable costs directly erode margins on BaaS and DRaaS offerings. Our predictable pricing model, with zero egress or API fees, allows partners to quote with confidence. This cost efficiency creates a significant competitive advantage for every MSP backup solution.

The partner console is designed for channel growth with features that simplify operations. Key benefits for partners include:

1. Predictable Margins: Zero hidden fees means the price you quote is the price you pay, protecting your profitability.
2. Multi-Tenant Management: A dedicated console with RBAC and MFA simplifies managing multiple clients securely.
3. Full Automation: The API and CLI enable seamless integration into existing management and billing workflows.
4. Fast Onboarding: Out-of-the-box integrations with leading backup tools like Veeam Backup Storage speed up deployment.

This model empowers partners to pass savings to customers while maintaining healthy margins. It provides a foundation for building highly competitive and profitable data protection services.

Your 6-Step Migration and Modernization Checklist

Transitioning to a cost-efficient and secure backup repository can be accomplished in just a few steps. A successful migration requires a clear plan following the classic 3-2-1 backup rule. Here is a simple checklist to guide your migration:

1. Analyze Current Costs: Identify all storage, egress, and API call fees from your current provider over the last 12 months.
2. Verify S3 Compatibility: Confirm your backup software and any custom scripts use the S3 API.
3. Configure New Storage Repository: Create your new buckets and configure IAM policies with least-privilege principles.
4. Update Backup Job Endpoints: Change the target endpoint in your backup software to the new S3-compatible storage.
5. Run a Test Backup and Restore: Execute a small backup job and perform a test recovery to validate the entire workflow.
6. Migrate Existing Backups: Schedule the full migration of your historical backup data, taking advantage of zero ingress fees.

This structured approach minimizes risk and ensures a seamless transition. Following these steps helps you quickly realize the cost and security benefits of a modern cloud backup storage solution.
