Benefits of Arkivum A-Stor digital archiving service

Current storage strategies are often unsustainable for long-term archiving. Internal solutions can be expensive to buy and difficult to manage. Conventional cloud-storage offers few guarantees that the data you store will be the data you retrieve, or that the data is stored in a known and secure location that you chose. A-Stor digital archiving service is the answer. It’s easy to use, secure and 100% safe for data - guaranteed. Contact us today to find out more about A-Stor.

	Safe Unlike any other digital archiving service, we guarantee 100% data integrity.   We use our own infrastructure and we make no assumptions about the safety or security of any component of our system, be it hardware, software or people. We check and double check data integrity every step of the way, we tightly control access to all aspects of our service and we use sophisticated monitoring to identify problems before they occur. These extreme measures allow us to provide absolute assurance that if you use our digital data archive your data is safe and that only you can access it.
	Secure A-Stor digital archive automatically encrypts all data before it leaves your site and only you hold the keys to unlock this data
	Resilient A-Stor digital archive holds three encrypted copies of your data at all times, two in automated tape libraries in different geographic locations and one off-line in a secure third party escrow service. This ensures your long term data is safe even if the worst catastrophe should befall our automated services
	Fully managed The A-Stor digital archiving service constantly monitors the health of the archive, upgrading and migrating as technology advances to ensure that all long term data held within our service is always fresh and available.
	Unlimited storage Data storage within the A-Stor digital archive is unlimited.  Within our infrastructure we are constantly adding capacity to ensure we are never more than 50% full.
	Simplified compliance With Arkivum’s transparent approach to long term data storage, organisations can see that auditable processes are in place and are being followed.  We offer a 100% guarantee that data placed in the digital archive is safe and can be easily retrieved to ensure compliance no matter how far in the future the request is made.
	Seamless integration The A-Stor digital archive acts like a normal network file-system; it integrates into your environment, understands permissions and appears to your end users just like any other shared storage.
	Manageable costs Our digital archiving service provides significant economic benefits as an on-going operational expense versus the in-house option which requires a high degree of human input along with a series of large capital equipment investments.
