Secure Sovereign Control Over Patient Data

Storing patient data in the EU is a baseline requirement under GDPR, which mandates strict rules on data protection. A true medical imaging cloud archive must guarantee UK data residency to avoid exposure to foreign laws like the CLOUD Act. Our platform operates exclusively in certified European data centers, offering country-level geofencing for 100% of your data. This ensures you maintain sole control over encryption keys and data access. This approach directly addresses GDPR's core principle of data sovereignty for all patient records. This foundation of EU-centric governance is the first step toward comprehensive compliance.

Eliminate Economic Uncertainty and Vendor Lock-In

Migrating a PACS or VNA system is a significant challenge, often made worse by vendor-specific data formats. Many cloud providers amplify this problem with punitive egress fees, creating financial lock-in that penalizes data mobility. A predictable cost model with zero egress fees, no API call costs, and no minimum storage duration changes the dynamic entirely. This transparency provides predictable margins for MSPs and IT departments, with total costs reduced by over 50% in many cases. Full S3-API compatibility ensures your existing tools and scripts work without modification, simplifying migration. This economic clarity allows for better long-term financial planning and resource allocation.

Build a Resilient Archive Against Ransomware

Ransomware attacks on healthcare are increasing, making data resilience a primary concern for any medical imaging cloud archive. The UK NIS Regulations mandates robust risk management and security measures to protect critical infrastructure. Using Immutable Storage with Object Lock makes your backups unchangeable for a set period, providing a powerful defense against ransomware. Our architecture eliminates single points of failure, ensuring high availability. Furthermore, our "Always-Hot" object storage model means all data is immediately accessible, with zero delays for restores. This avoids the operational complexity and hidden costs of tiered storage systems.

Future-Proof Your Archive for New UK Regulations

Forthcoming UK legislation will reshape data governance, and your medical imaging cloud archive must be prepared. Here is how a sovereign cloud aligns with these new rules:

1. The EU Data Act, applicable from September 2025, mandates data portability to prevent vendor lock-in.
2. Our open standards and S3 compatibility ensure you can move data freely, satisfying this requirement by design.
3. The UK NIS Regulations requires continuous security processes and supply-chain assurance for critical sectors like healthcare.
4. Our platform's security measures, including multi-layer encryption and IAM with MFA, are baked into operations.
5. This proactive alignment turns regulatory readiness into a competitive advantage for your organization.

By addressing these requirements now, you ensure your compliance posture remains strong for years to come.

Empower Partners with a Channel-Ready Platform

Managed Service Providers and system integrators require a platform built for their business model. Predictable margins are guaranteed by a model with zero egress or API fees. A multi-tenant partner console with granular RBAC and MFA simplifies management across multiple clients. Fast onboarding and automation via a full-featured API and CLI reduce operational overhead by up to 30%. With distribution partners like api in Germany and Northamber plc in the UK, local access and support are expanding. This partner-centric approach provides the tools needed to deliver sovereign UK data residency solutions effectively.

Execute a Seamless Migration in 5 Steps

Transitioning your medical imaging cloud archive from a legacy system can be straightforward with proper planning. A phased approach minimizes disruption and ensures data integrity throughout the process. Here are five key steps for a successful migration:

• 1. Assess Current Systems: Evaluate your existing PACS or VNA infrastructure, identifying data volumes and formats.
• 2. Define Policies: Configure lifecycle, versioning, and Object Lock policies in your new sovereign storage environment.
• 3. Initiate Data Transfer: Use an S3-compatible tool to move an initial data set, leveraging regional proximity for low latency.
• 4. Validate Integrity: Perform test restores and checksum validations to ensure 100% of the migrated data is accurate and accessible.
• 5. Update Endpoints: Repoint your applications and imaging modalities to the new S3 endpoint and switch to live operations.
