Why Europe’s Leading MSPs Choose an EU-Native Veeam Object Storage Solutions Provider
Enterprises face a dual threat: unpredictable cloud costs and complex EU data regulations. A sovereign Veeam object storage solutions provider eliminates both challenges by design. Discover a platform built for compliance, performance, and predictable partner margins.
The topic briefly and concisely
A sovereign Veeam object storage solutions provider built in the EU ensures GDPR compliance and avoids CLOUD Act exposure by design.
Eliminating egress fees and API call costs creates a predictable pricing model, protecting MSP margins and enterprise budgets from surprise charges.
Combining Veeam with S3 Object Lock (Immutable Storage) and an "Always-Hot" architecture provides the fastest, most reliable defense against ransomware.
Selecting a Veeam object storage solutions provider is a critical decision for 9 out of 10 IT leaders focused on resilience. Many cloud options introduce unpredictable egress fees and expose data to non-EU laws. This creates significant financial and compliance risks, with GDPR fines reaching €1.2 billion for a single violation. An EU-based, S3-compatible object storage platform offers a practical alternative. It delivers digital sovereignty, ransomware protection through immutable backups, and a cost model with zero egress fees. This approach ensures your Veeam strategy is both secure and economically sustainable for 2025 and beyond.
Secure Veeam Data with Sovereign, EU-Only Infrastructure
Digital sovereignty is a primary concern for over 80% of European businesses. Storing Veeam backups with a non-EU provider risks exposure to foreign laws like the CLOUD Act. Impossible Cloud operates exclusively in certified European data centers, ensuring GDPR compliance by design. This strategy mitigates data transfer risks that led to fines of over €1.2 billion for some companies. Our country-level geofencing guarantees your data stays within predefined EU regions under EU rules. This provides the legal certainty needed for regulated industries across the 27-member bloc.

FAQ
Why is S3 compatibility important for a Veeam storage provider?
Full S3 compatibility is critical because it ensures seamless, out-of-the-box integration with Veeam's backup and recovery workflows. It allows you to use your existing scripts and tools without modification, protecting past investments and minimizing migration risk while leveraging features like Object Lock for immutability.
What are the benefits of an 'Always-Hot' storage model for Veeam restores?
An 'Always-Hot' model means all backup data is instantly accessible, eliminating delays associated with restoring data from archived or deep storage tiers. This significantly speeds up recovery times, reduces operational complexity, and ensures your business can meet stringent Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs).
How does your pricing model benefit Managed Service Providers (MSPs)?
Our model is 'predictable by design.' By eliminating egress fees, API call costs, and minimum storage durations, we provide MSPs with stable, defensible margins for their Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) offerings. This transparency removes the risk of unexpected costs that can erase profitability.
Is your platform compliant with the NIS-2 Directive?
Yes, our platform is designed to help you meet NIS-2 requirements. We provide robust supply-chain assurance as an EU-based provider, continuous security processes, and the necessary tools for incident reporting, helping you comply with the directive's stringent cybersecurity measures.
What is digital sovereignty and why does it matter for my backups?
Digital sovereignty means your data is subject only to the laws of the jurisdiction where it is stored. For backups, storing them with an EU-only provider like Impossible Cloud ensures they are governed exclusively by EU law (like GDPR), protecting them from access requests under foreign legislation such as the U.S. CLOUD Act.
How do I migrate my existing Veeam backups to your storage?
Migration is straightforward due to our full S3 API compatibility. You can add Impossible Cloud as a new S3-compatible object storage repository in your Veeam console. Then, you can easily copy existing backup jobs or point new ones to our platform without any complex data transformation.
