Eliminate 60-80% of Cloud Costs by Removing Egress Fees

Cost unpredictability is the number one pain point for most enterprises using cloud storage for backup. Hidden charges for data egress and API calls can inflate monthly bills by 3-5x, turning a predictable operational expense into a significant financial risk. A truly cost-efficient cloud storage for Veeam must offer a transparent pricing model. Impossible Cloud eliminates these variable costs entirely, offering zero egress fees, no API call charges, and no minimum storage durations. This predictable-by-design approach allows organizations to save 60-80% on typical cloud storage costs associated with backup and disaster recovery workflows. Predictable pricing makes budget planning finally possible for data-intensive workloads. This transparent economic model ensures your total cost of ownership is dramatically lower and completely predictable. By removing hidden fees, you can focus resources on strategic initiatives rather than managing surprise invoices.

Accelerate Backup and Recovery Performance by up to 20%

Performance is critical when choosing an alternative to Veeam Vault, as slow recovery directly impacts business continuity. Many cloud storage providers use complex tiering, where data is moved to slower, cheaper storage, causing significant delays and fees during a restore. Impossible Cloud utilizes an "Always-Hot" object storage model, ensuring all data is immediately accessible with consistent low latency. This architecture delivers up to 20% faster backup and restore performance compared to traditional tiered cloud storage. This always-hot access eliminates restore surprises and keeps third-party tools stable. The benefits of this approach are clear:

• No Restore Delays: All data is instantly available, meeting aggressive Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs).
• Reduced Complexity: Eliminates the need for fragile lifecycle policies that can lead to API timeouts and operational drift.
• Consistent Latency: Strong read/write consistency ensures predictable performance for millions of small files or large archives.
• No Restore Fees: Accessing your data never incurs surprise charges, unlike tiered storage models.

This focus on consistent, high-speed access makes it the fastest S3 object storage for Veeam, simplifying operations and strengthening recovery capabilities.

Achieve Seamless Integration with 100% S3 Compatibility

S3 compatibility has become a baseline requirement, but not all alternatives deliver on its promise. A performant alternative to Veeam Vault must provide a drop-in replacement for AWS S3 that works with existing tools and scripts without code rewrites. Impossible Cloud offers full S3 API compatibility, ensuring your Veeam backups, applications, and automation pipelines continue to run seamlessly. You only need to change the endpoint; everything else remains the same. This protects your past investments and minimizes migration risk to near zero. This deep compatibility extends beyond basic operations to include advanced capabilities like versioning, lifecycle management, and object tagging. By adhering to the Veeam S3 standard, you maintain data portability and avoid the proprietary APIs that lead to vendor lock-in.

Strengthen Ransomware Defenses with Immutable Storage

With backup infrastructure now a primary target for ransomware, immutable storage is a non-negotiable feature for business continuity. Impossible Cloud provides Immutable Storage with Object Lock, creating a Write-Once-Read-Many (WORM) state that prevents data from being altered or deleted. This capability is your last line of defense, ensuring a clean copy of your data is always available for recovery after an attack. Immutable storage is increasingly a compliance requirement for cyber insurance policies. To build a resilient ransomware posture, follow these steps:

1. Enable Object Lock: Activate immutability on your backup buckets to protect data for a defined retention period.
2. Implement Strong IAM: Use Identity and Access Management with multi-factor authentication (MFA) and role-based access control (RBAC) to limit unauthorized access.
3. Follow the 3-2-1-1-0 Rule: Maintain three copies of your data on two different media, with one offsite and one immutable copy, ensuring zero recovery errors.
4. Regularly Test Restores: Periodically validate your Veeam immutable backups to ensure they are recoverable and meet business requirements.

This multi-layered security approach, combined with enterprise-grade certifications like SOC 2 and ISO 27001, provides an audit-ready solution for regulated workloads.

Gain Full Data Control and Eliminate Vendor Lock-In

Vendor lock-in is a top concern for IT leaders, as proprietary APIs and punitive egress fees make switching cloud providers prohibitively expensive. A superior object storage solution is designed for data control and independence. Impossible Cloud's combination of a standard S3-compatible API and a zero-egress-fee policy provides a built-in exit strategy. You retain full control over your data, with the freedom to move it whenever needed without financial penalties. This preserves your negotiation power and ensures long-term freedom of action. Furthermore, with a US presence and country-level geofencing, you can keep data in predefined regions to meet compliance and data residency requirements. This commitment to open standards and data portability breaks the cycle of vendor dependency.

Drive MSP Profitability with Predictable Margins

For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), unpredictable cloud costs directly erode margins on Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) and DRaaS offerings. Impossible Cloud's partner-centric model is built on predictability. With zero egress fees and no API charges, MSPs can quote with confidence, knowing their margins are protected from surprise bills. This cost efficiency provides a significant competitive advantage in the market. The platform includes a multi-tenant partner console with RBAC and MFA, API/CLI for automation, and simplified reporting for fast onboarding and streamlined management. This allows MSPs to pass savings to customers while maintaining healthy margins, making it the ideal Veeam backup storage for the channel.
