Modern and secure object storage – Made in Europe AKHET® Object Storage

Yes, of course! Whether you choose the HDD or all-flash option, Akhet Data Platform Nodes powered by Cloudian Hyperstore are perfectly suited for AI workloads. Effortlessly create your own data lake—a centralized, secure, and scalable platform for large volumes of unstructured, semi-structured, and even structured data. Seamless integration with leading AI frameworks and tools—the native S3 API ensures full compatibility, as AWS SDK = Cloudian SDK. Multi-tenancy for maximum data security—run multiple machine learning workflows simultaneously, while separate namespaces and access controls ensure full data security at all times.

Essentially all data is protected thanks to the integrated Object Lock functionality, which meets the highest security standards. All Akhet object storage solutions provide you with a modern, native S3 object storage platform that is both secure and scalable.

Since S3 is the language of the cloud, you can easily connect to all S3-compatible services and applications, giving you a centralized and secure solution for your valuable data without any compromises.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) developed and launched its Simple Storage Service (S3) in 2006, which has since become the de facto standard for non-proprietary object storage. Object storage was originally developed with the cloud and evolving (digital) business practices in mind. The cloud speaks S3, and the open S3 API allows different operating systems and applications to connect seamlessly without the traditional technical connectivity issues and storage silos. All you need is a web browser. Today, object storage is a proven technology designed to simplify the storage, management, and retrieval of unstructured data, thereby improving flexibility while reducing costs compared to traditional block and file storage solutions. Object storage offers a variety of benefits for your business, such as secure and flexible data access and data sovereignty, to name just a few. In summary: Whether your business is small or large, you should evaluate how object storage can help you grow, drive innovation, and achieve your digital transformation goals.

Together with our technology partner Cloudian, we are able to offer the most comprehensive certifications in the industry for object storage. Cloudian Hyperstore is certified to meet the requirements of the following regulations:

SEC Rule 17a-4(f)
CFTC 17 C.F.R. § 1.31
FINRA 4511c
IDW PS 880 (German)
OR §§ 957ff (Switzerland)
In addition, Cloudian complies with the data erasure standards set forth in NIST 800-88. As a result, Cloudian has been awarded FIPS 140-2 Level 1 validation, which means that the encryption methods used by Cloudian HyperStore have been independently audited and tested.

Object Lock is currently regarded as the best protection for data against encryption or tampering by ransomware, other cyber threats, and malicious actors. With Object Lock, you can prevent data from being deleted or tampered with during a retention period defined by the customer.

Akhet Data Platform Nodes powered by Cloudian Hyperstore is a secure solution that has proven itself in government and enterprise deployments worldwide. With Object Lock and its enterprise-grade immutable storage design, you’ll never have to pay a ransom again, while also meeting IT security standards and current and future regulatory requirements.

Yes, of course. Whether you want to replicate data between multiple on-premises locations or between on-premises and the cloud, that’s no problem. You simply do what’s best for your business and the integrity of your data.

Yes, of course. With our Akhet Data Platform Nodes, you can even enhance data security by distributing data across multiple locations or data centers using distributed erasure coding.

In short, dark data refers to all the data we constantly produce, collect, and store, even though we do not use it for direct monetization, analytics, or other relevant purposes. In today’s data-driven world, it is more important than ever to know what data exists and where it is located, because the untapped potential of valuable data poses a barrier to business success. Implementing a modern, secure, scalable, and efficient storage architecture is a crucial step toward bringing your data out of the shadows and fully integrating it into strategic planning and operational processes. Data can easily become “dark” within the old hierarchy of folders and directories. Object storage, on the other hand, uses metadata, which makes it much easier to track, process, and understand your data. This puts you in the pole position and gives you a competitive advantage with a modern storage infrastructure that is more affordable than you might think.

Bi-modal data access means that both file-based and object-based applications can access all file types or object data. This is important because bi-modal data access ensures that your valuable data is universally accessible—both through legacy applications that are still in use and through modern apps that you plan to integrate or have just started using.
