Eliminate Budget Surprises by Removing Hidden Fees

Most enterprises struggle with surprise costs from major cloud providers. Organizations report saving 60-80% on storage workflows by eliminating egress fees alone. This transparent model makes budget planning and ROI calculations predictable for the first time.

The core issue is a pricing structure designed to penalize data movement. With zero egress fees, zero API call costs, and no minimum storage duration, your bill reflects only the storage you use. This approach simplifies financial planning for IT leaders managing petabytes of data.

Predictable pricing makes budget planning finally possible for over 75% of IT departments. This shift toward cost transparency is a direct response to vendor lock-in, which is a top concern for enterprise IT. A predictable model gives you back control over your data and your budget. This financial control is the first step toward a more agile data strategy.

Achieve Full S3 Compatibility Without Application Rewrites

IT leaders require drop-in replacements that work with their existing tools. True S3 compatibility protects your past investments in scripts and applications, reducing migration risk to nearly zero. You can simply change the endpoint and keep everything else running.

A fully compatible S3-compatible object storage solution supports advanced capabilities. The following features are essential for modern data pipelines:

• Versioning for object history and recovery.
• Lifecycle management to automate data policies.
• Event notifications for workflow automation.
• Object tagging for granular cost allocation and access control.

This level of compatibility accelerates time-to-value by 100% during migration. It ensures your backup tools, archival scripts, and data analytics platforms continue to function without code rewrites. This seamless integration is critical for maintaining business continuity during a platform transition.

Boost Backup Performance with an Always-Hot Architecture

An "Always-Hot" object storage model ensures all data is immediately accessible. This design choice eliminates tier-restore delays and avoids the operational complexity of managing lifecycle policies. It provides up to 20% faster backup performance compared to traditional tiered storage.

Complex tiering often leads to restore failures and surprise retrieval fees. An always-hot architecture delivers strong read/write consistency and predictable latencies for millions of files. This model reduces operational complexity by over 50% for backup administrators.

This architecture is built for consistency, availability, and scale. By avoiding fragile tiering, you prevent API timeouts and hidden operational costs that plague legacy systems. This robust foundation prepares your infrastructure for advanced security measures.

Implement Ransomware Protection with Immutable Storage

With backup infrastructure as a primary attack target, immutable storage is non-negotiable. Object Lock capabilities create a WORM (Write-Once-Read-Many) model, making critical data tamper-proof for a set period. This is a core requirement for cyber insurance policies in 2025.

This feature is part of a multi-layer security strategy. It includes encryption in transit and at rest, IAM with MFA/RBAC, and an architecture with no single point of failure. Immutable storage is becoming a compliance requirement for over 80% of regulated industries.

Enterprise-grade compliance certifications like SOC 2 and ISO 27001 are included. These standards verify security controls for regulated workloads without forcing vendor lock-in. This security posture is essential for partners who serve these demanding markets.

Enable Predictable Margins for MSPs and Channel Partners

For MSPs and resellers, predictable costs create predictable margins. A model with zero egress or API fees allows you to quote BaaS and DRaaS services with confidence. There are no surprise bills to erode your profitability on a 12-month contract.

The partner console is designed for channel growth. It offers key features for service providers:

1. Multi-tenant management for client separation.
2. Full automation via a comprehensive API and CLI.
3. Detailed reporting for billing and compliance.
4. Fast onboarding to accelerate revenue generation.

This cost efficiency provides a 15-25% competitive advantage in the crowded BaaS market. You can pass savings to customers or increase margins on existing contracts. The NovaBackup collaboration further enhances compliance for MSPs. This operational efficiency allows you to focus on building a clear exit strategy for your clients.

Preserve Long-Term Freedom with a Built-In Exit Strategy

Vendor lock-in is a strategic risk created by proprietary APIs and punitive egress fees. An effective exit strategy relies on open standards and data portability from day one. S3-compatible APIs and no data retrieval fees are the foundation of this freedom.

This approach preserves your negotiation power and long-term freedom of action. You can move petabytes of data without financial penalty, ensuring you always use the best tool for the job. Over 90% of IT leaders cite vendor lock-in as a top concern when selecting a cloud provider.

Data portability and interoperability are features of the architecture. This commitment to open standards is the ultimate guarantee against being trapped by a single vendor. It's time to start your journey toward data independence.
