The Sovereignty Mandate: Why EU-Centric Storage Is Non-Negotiable

Digital sovereignty is now a strategic imperative for over 87% of European IT leaders. Storing data with non-EU providers creates exposure to foreign laws like the CLOUD Act, a risk many are no longer willing to take. Our platform eliminates this risk by operating exclusively in certified European data centers.

We provide country-level geofencing to guarantee your data stays within a predefined region under strict EU rules. This ensures full GDPR compliance for all backup and archive workloads. For financial services clients, this delivers the EU-compliant regions and geofenced storage essential for regulated data.

This EU-only operational model provides 100% legal certainty for your most sensitive data assets. This focus on data residency is a core selection criterion for enterprises seeking true control. This approach directly addresses the need for a practical, enterprise-ready EU alternative.

Immutable Backups: Your Last Line of Defense Against Ransomware

Ransomware attacks are increasing, with Gartner estimating 75% of IT organizations will face an incident by 2025. Immutable backups are your most effective countermeasure, making data unchangeable for a set period. Our service integrates S3 Object Lock to create a write-once-read-many (WORM) state for your backup files.

This feature makes your backup data completely tamper-proof, even from internal administrative accounts. It provides auditable proof of data integrity, a key requirement for many compliance frameworks. You can implement a modern 3-2-1-1-0 backup strategy with at least one immutable copy stored in our ransomware-proof cloud.

Here are the core benefits of using Object Lock for your backups:

• Ransomware Protection: Encrypting locked objects is impossible, neutralizing the primary attack vector.
• Regulatory Compliance: Meets strict data retention rules for industries like finance and healthcare under GDPR.
• Data Integrity: Guarantees that your backup is an exact, unaltered copy of your data from a specific point in time.
• Insider Threat Mitigation: Protects against accidental or malicious deletion by internal users with high-level privileges.

Organizations using immutable backups restore systems significantly faster after an attack. By making your backup data invulnerable, you ensure a reliable recovery path is always available. This resilience is the foundation of a modern data protection strategy.

Predictable Economics: Eliminating Cloud Cost Surprises

Many businesses feel locked into their cloud providers due to complex and unpredictable pricing models. A major pain point is egress fees, which the EU Data Act will fully ban by January 2027 to reduce vendor lock-in. We eliminate these costs entirely today, offering a transparent model with zero egress fees and zero API call costs.

This "Predictable by design" approach ensures you only pay for the storage you use, with no minimum duration contracts. For MSPs, this translates directly to stable, defensible margins for their Backup-as-a-Service offerings. You can offer GDPR-compliant S3 storage without worrying about hidden charges eating into your profits.

Our transparent pricing removes the financial penalties for accessing your own data. This economic clarity is a primary driver for enterprises switching to EU-based alternatives. This model gives you the freedom to build a resilient and cost-effective backup strategy.

Beyond Basics: S3 Compatibility That Protects Your Investments

True S3 compatibility goes beyond basic object operations; it means your existing tools and scripts continue to work without modification. Our platform offers full S3 API compatibility, protecting your past investments in backup software and automation pipelines. We have out-of-the-box integrations with leading backup tools, including a deep collaboration with backup ISV NovaBackup.

This ensures you can migrate your backup jobs with zero code rewrites, minimizing risk and operational disruption. Advanced capabilities are fully supported across our API, CLI, and SDKs. These include:

1. Versioning for object rollback
2. Lifecycle management for automated data handling
3. Object tagging for granular control
4. Event notifications for workflow automation
5. Presigned URLs for time-bounded access

Full compatibility ensures your teams can use their existing skills and tools from day one. This seamless transition is critical for maintaining business continuity during a provider switch. This focus on interoperability prepares your architecture for the future.

An Architecture Built for Resilience and Performance

Many cloud providers use complex storage tiers that can introduce delays and unexpected fees during data restores. Our architecture is built on an "Always-Hot" object storage model, ensuring all data is immediately accessible with predictable latencies. This eliminates the operational complexity and API timeouts associated with tier-restore delays.

Our system is designed for strong read/write consistency and multi-AZ replication, eliminating single points of failure. This architecture provides the high availability needed for mission-critical backup and disaster recovery use cases. It handles millions of small files as efficiently as large archives, supporting your secure cloud backup needs.

The Always-Hot model guarantees that your restore operations will never fail due to tiering policy drift. This architectural choice simplifies operations and strengthens your recovery posture. This robust foundation is essential for meeting modern enterprise SLAs.

Regulatory Readiness: Aligning with the EU Data Act and NIS-2

For European businesses, regulatory alignment is a competitive advantage. Our platform is designed to meet the stringent requirements of upcoming EU regulations. The EU Data Act, applicable from September 2025, mandates data portability and interoperability to prevent vendor lock-in. Our S3 compatibility and zero egress fees already align with these principles.

The NIS-2 Directive requires continuous security processes and supply-chain assurance for critical infrastructure. Our use of immutable storage with Object Lock, multi-layer encryption, and EU-controlled key management are baked into our operations. This provides a secure foundation for your compliance needs.

We build our services to be compliant by design, not as an afterthought. This proactive approach reduces your regulatory burden. This readiness ensures your storage strategy remains future-proof.

The MSP Advantage: Driving Growth with Predictable Margins

For our partners, predictable margins are the key to a profitable service portfolio. Our channel-first model is built on a simple promise: no egress fees, no API call costs, and no minimum storage durations. This allows MSPs to build and price their backup and archiving services with confidence, knowing their costs will not fluctuate unexpectedly.

Our partner console is designed for efficiency, with multi-tenant management, role-based access control (RBAC), and MFA. Automation via our full-featured API and CLI allows for deep integration into your existing management platforms. Recent distribution agreements with api in Germany and Northamber plc in the UK further expand local access for resellers.

Our partner-ready platform simplifies compliance and accelerates onboarding for MSPs of all sizes. We provide the tools to help you deliver sovereign, high-margin backup services. Now is the time to build your European cloud practice. Talk to an expert to get started.
