Drive Sovereign Big Data Strategy with Enterprise Object Storage
Enterprises face a triple threat: soaring data volumes, complex EU regulations, and unpredictable cloud costs. A sovereign, enterprise-grade object storage platform offers a clear path to mastering big data workloads.
Key Takeawys
Adopt a sovereign-by-design enterprise object storage solution to meet GDPR, EU Data Act, and NIS-2 compliance for big data workloads.
Eliminate unpredictable costs and vendor lock-in with a transparent pricing model that has zero egress fees, API call costs, or minimum storage durations.
Leverage an "Always-Hot" architecture with S3 Object Lock to ensure immediate data access and create immutable backups for robust ransomware protection.
Handling enterprise object storage for big data workloads demands more than just capacity; it requires a strategy built on digital sovereignty, cost predictability, and resilience. A strong majority of EU decision-makers now prioritize European solutions for their critical infrastructure. This shift is driven by the need for GDPR compliance and avoidance of CLOUD Act exposure. An EU-native, S3-compatible object storage solution directly addresses these needs. It provides the performance parity and security required to manage petabyte-scale data while eliminating the vendor lock-in common with hyperscale providers. This approach ensures your big data strategy is both powerful and compliant.
Establish Digital Sovereignty for Big Data
A majority of EU leaders demand European solutions for critical data infrastructure. Our enterprise object storage for big data workloads operates exclusively in certified European data centers. This ensures strict GDPR compliance and protects you from CLOUD Act exposure. Country-level geofencing keeps your data within predefined EU regions under a single legal framework. You gain full control over data residency, a key criterion for over 75% of EU enterprises. This foundation of sovereignty prepares your architecture for future regulatory shifts.
Optimize Performance with an Always-Hot Architecture
Complex tiering models create operational risk and unpredictable restore delays for big data workloads. Our "Always-Hot" object storage model ensures all data is immediately accessible with 99.9% uptime. This eliminates fragile lifecycle policies that cause API timeouts and hidden fees. Full S3-API compatibility protects your existing investments in tools and scripts. Your applications keep running without code rewrites, minimizing migration risk by 100%. This consistent, high-availability architecture supports everything from analytics to archival. Learn more about our big data object storage.
Achieve Predictable Economics and Eliminate Lock-In
Many enterprises feel locked into providers due to complex pricing. We deliver a transparent economic model with zero egress fees or API call costs. This predictable structure provides stable margins, a critical benefit for our MSP partners. There are no minimum storage duration requirements, giving you complete financial flexibility. This approach directly addresses the primary pain points driving over 70% of businesses to seek alternatives. Our commitment to open standards ensures you always have a clear exit strategy. Explore the advantages of our storage model.
Strengthen Ransomware Defense with Immutable Storage
Ransomware attacks increasingly target backup repositories, with a 68% success rate in breaching them. Our enterprise object storage includes Immutable Storage with S3 Object Lock. This Write-Once-Read-Many (WORM) technology makes your backup data unchangeable. Immutable backups provide a guaranteed, clean recovery point to restore operations quickly. Multi-layer encryption for data in transit and at rest adds another layer of defense. This security-first design is essential for a resilient ransomware posture. Read about secure big data storage.
Key security features include:
Identity-based IAM with granular, role-driven policies.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
Support for external Identity Providers via SAML/OIDC.
End-to-end encryption under EU-controlled key management.
Ensure Regulatory Readiness for 2025 and Beyond
Upcoming EU regulations demand new levels of data governance. The EU Data Act, applying from September 2025, mandates data portability by design. Our platform ensures you can export all data, including metadata and versions, proving a real exit path. The NIS-2 Directive requires continuous security processes and supply-chain assurance. We bake these requirements into our core operations, not as an afterthought. This proactive stance on compliance becomes a competitive advantage for your business. Discover our big data solutions.
Empower MSPs and Channel Partners with a Predictable Model
We built our platform to be partner-ready from day one. For MSPs and resellers, our predictable cost model with zero egress fees allows for stable, defensible margins on BaaS and archiving services. The partner console offers powerful multi-tenant management with robust RBAC and MFA controls. Automation via a full-featured API and CLI simplifies onboarding and management for hundreds of clients. Our expanding distribution network, including api in Germany and Northamber plc in the UK, provides local access and support. This focus on the channel creates a clear path to growth.

FAQ
How does your pricing model benefit big data workloads?
Our pricing model is designed for predictability and cost-effectiveness at scale. By eliminating all egress fees and API call charges, we remove the hidden costs that often inflate bills for data-intensive workloads like analytics, AI/ML, and large-scale archiving. This allows for transparent budgeting and a lower total cost of ownership.
Is your platform suitable for Managed Service Providers (MSPs)?
Yes, our platform is built to be partner-ready. We offer a multi-tenant console, full automation via API/CLI, and a predictable pricing model with no egress fees, which allows MSPs to build profitable and compliant Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) and Disaster-Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS) offerings with defensible margins.
What makes an "Always-Hot" storage model better than tiered storage?
An "Always-Hot" model simplifies operations by making 100% of your data immediately accessible without restore delays or retrieval fees. Tiered storage often leads to complex lifecycle policies, unexpected costs, and slow recovery times, which can disrupt big data analytics and critical restore operations.
How do you ensure compliance with the EU Data Act?
We ensure compliance with the EU Data Act by design. Our platform is built on open standards, providing full data portability. You can export your data, metadata, and access information in a structured format, guaranteeing a practical exit strategy and preventing vendor lock-in as mandated from September 2025.
What kind of performance can I expect for big data analytics?
Our architecture is built for consistent, low-latency performance. By operating exclusively in EU data centers, we offer regional proximity that reduces latency. The "Always-Hot" model ensures predictable read/write speeds suitable for mixed workloads, including millions of small files or large object sets used in analytics.
How can I migrate my existing data to your platform?
Migration is straightforward due to our full S3 API compatibility. You can use any S3-compatible tool, script, or application to move your data. We support proven bulk data movement tools and provide a simple console UX to manage buckets, policies, and permissions, minimizing migration risk and effort.
