Distributed data retention is technically difficult and can be costly. That’s why companies should ask two questions up-front: which technology is used for centralised data retention and the relocation of HomeShares onto a platform and what does that mean for the budget?

2000 users with 250 GB each are equivalent to a capacity of approximately 500 TB. Such an investment (usually CAPEX) can easily add up to a total cost of ownership of 500 thousand to a million euro in your IT budget planning over a 36-month period.

Our solution on the basis of the ZADARA platform enables companies to have their storage capacities invoiced according to what they actually use. You don’t have to do without performance or network speed, as is often to be observed in purely cloudbased solutions.
