Object Storage – Scalable Storage for Growing Data Volumes

Data volumes are growing. Your storage solution should keep pace.

 

Whether it’s backup, archiving, AI applications, research, or media production—companies today are generating more data than ever before. Traditional file systems often reach their limits. Object storage was specifically developed to store large and continuously growing data sets securely, cost-effectively, and flexibly.

INCOM supports companies in planning and implementing modern object storage solutions—from a few terabytes to several petabytes.

 

When Is Object Storage the Right Choice?

Object storage is particularly well-suited if you…

  • want to store large amounts of data long-term
  • need a scalable storage platform
  • use S3-compatible applications
  • want to partially or completely replace cloud storage
  • want to store backup data securely and cost-effectively
  • want to centrally manage unstructured data
  • want to connect multiple locations
 

Your Benefits at a Glance

Virtually Unlimited Scalability
Flexibly expand your storage capacity—without replacing existing systems or incurring downtime.

High Data Security
Thanks to techniques such as erasure coding and distributed storage, your data remains protected even if individual components fail.

S3-compatible
Many modern backup, archiving, and AI applications support the S3 standard and can be easily integrated.

Cost-effective
Object storage offers low costs per terabyte and is particularly well-suited for data sets that grow over the long term.

Cloud or on-premises
Use object storage in your own data center, as a hybrid solution, or in combination with cloud services.

 

Typical Use Cases

Backup Repository
Fast, scalable storage for modern backup solutions such as Veeam or Commvault.

Long-Term Archiving
Secure storage of large volumes of data for decades—for example, in conjunction with archiving software or WORM technologies.

Research & Science
High-availability storage of large measurement, simulation, or genomic data sets.

Media & Entertainment
Centralized storage of large video, audio, and image data for production and archiving.

AI and Big Data Applications
Object storage is ideally suited as a data foundation for analytics, machine learning, and AI workloads.

 

The Right Solution for Your Needs

INCOM does not develop off-the-shelf, one-size-fits-all solutions. We work with you to analyze your requirements and combine the right storage technology with the appropriate components from leading manufacturers.

Depending on the project, we may use, for example:

  • S3 Object Storage
  • Scale-Out Storage
  • Hybrid Storage
  • Immutable Storage
  • Tape integration for air-gap concepts
  • Long-term archiving with optical storage
