ACTIVE ARCHIVE
Active today.
Preserved from day one.
Savartus combines high-performance SSD or HDD storage with optical object storage to provide immediate access and long-term preservation from the moment information arrives.
PRESERVE IMMEDIATELY
One ingest.
Two storage paths.
When information enters Savartus Active Archive, it is written simultaneously to high-performance SSD or HDD storage and to optical object storage.
OBJECT
HOT STORAGE
SSD / HDD
Immediate access and application performance.
OPTICAL OBJECT STORAGE
Preserved from day one
Durable, immutable storage designed for long-term retention.
STORAGE PLACEMENT CHANGES. PRESERVATION CONTINUES.
Keep information on the
right tier for the job.
Information does not require the same storage characteristics throughout its lifecycle. Savartus separates lifecycle state from storage placement, allowing access tiers to change while the information remains managed, preserved, and available according to policy.
HOT ACCESS
High-performance access
Information is available from SSD or HDD while a preserved optical copy exists simultaneously.

LIFECYCLE ECONOMICS
Stop paying for performance
you no longer need.
High-performance storage has value when information is actively being used. But that does not mean every retained object needs to remain on SSD or HDD indefinitely. Savartus allows storage cost to decline as access requirements change while preservation continues.

Storage placement is policy-driven and can change in either direction as information requirements change.
A DIFFERENT STORAGE MODEL
Compare the lifecycle.
Not just the storage price.
Public cloud providers offer multiple storage classes that trade access, retrieval time, and cost. Savartus approaches the problem differently by creating the preservation copy when information first arrives.

THE SAVARTUS DIFFERENCE
Preservation does not wait for information to become cold.
The high-performance copy and the preserved optical object are created together. Performance storage can later be removed without requiring preservation to begin again somewhere else.
Storage-class names are shown for architectural comparison. Detailed pricing, retrieval charges, minimum retention periods, and service characteristics vary by provider and region.
ACTIVE ARCHIVE AS A SERVICE
The same architecture.
As a service.
Savartus Active Archive as a Service aligns monthly storage cost with the access characteristics of the information.
While the high-performance SSD or HDD copy remains active, the customer pays for that performance tier together with optical preservation. When the hot copy is no longer required, the information remains in optical storage and the monthly rate can decline accordingly.

THINK LONG TERM
Your information may live
for decades.
Your expensive storage doesn't have to.
Preserve information immediately. Maintain high-performance access while it matters. Change storage placement as requirements change.
