AZURE ARCHIVE SERVICES

On-demand tiered storage in Microsoft Cloud

Flexible, low-cost storage for your on-premises and hosted applications.

If you have on-premises infrastructure and are running out of space for general storage or backup, we can help you take full advantage of Microsoft’s Azure tiered storage which gives you a choice between hot, cold, or an archival tier depending on how you access the data.

Storing data in Azure can decrease costs while freeing up resources and time.

  • Users see data through the use of offline files that provide a seamless recall when clicked.
  • Local caches let you optimise recall performance for frequently accessed items while minimising egress from the cloud.
  • Inline deduplication and compression delivers savings between 25-60%, and you pay only for what you use.

What to look for in Azure archiving services

No lock in

Data governance

Collect Journal feeds, apply retention policies, put items on litigation hold, get WORM compliance and prevent data loss.

Data aware storage

Once stored in the cloud, you can profile and query what you have, so that you can make better decisions on what to keep. Build policies, audit activity and perform discovery as and when you need to.

Re-purpose existing file servers as cloud storage gateways

Creates simple software copies, adds storage tiers and migrates data based on policies you define without adding new hardware or disrupting users/apps.
