We're proud to announce our partnership with cloud storage provider, Impossible Cloud. As a European-based company, this is a great option for IT Providers with GDPR compliance requirements. All data is securely stored within a European Cloud Provider in top-tier, GDPR-compliant, and ISO-certified data centers, eliminating the need for additional investment in data storage compliance.

Who is Impossible Cloud?​

Impossible Cloud is Europe’s premier cloud storage solution, designed to provide businesses with secure, scalable, and cost-effective data storage.

Their platform features built-in ransomware protection, unlimited hot storage, and 100% S3 API compatibility. Advanced security measures and significant cost savings makes Impossible Cloud an ideal choice for businesses looking to enhance their data storage capabilities.

How the Integration Works​

Comet’s user-friendly integration with Impossible Cloud allows you to easily select Impossible Cloud as your storage solution.

The integration includes Storage Template support for provisioning direct-to-cloud buckets for individual end-users. This feature can use Impossible Cloud's IAM functionality for end-user support, as well as their partner API for MSPs who are looking to start reselling Impossible Cloud storage.

Object Lock for Protecting Data from Ransomware​

Another great feature we have with Impossible Cloud is Object Lock integration for creating immutable backups. Object Lock puts the data in an immutable state—it’s accessible and usable, but it can’t be changed or deleted. This provides complete defense against ransomware attacks, giving you peace of mind for data stored in the cloud.

Cost Savings​

Another aspect that makes Impossible Cloud competitive for IT Providers is their price €7.99 per terabyte per month, with no egress or hidden fees. Impossible Cloud’s has a pay-for-what-you-use pricing structure which is designed to be transparent and predictable. This price is competitive with Wasabi, Backblaze and our own Comet Storage offering, with the benefit of allowing you to pay in Euros if you wish.

Comet Backup and Storadera Integrate to Provide Cost-Effective and High-Performance Backups with S3-Compatible Object Storage​

Christchurch / Tallinn – January 13, 2022 – Comet Backup, a leading IT backup platform, and Storadera, an S3 compatible cloud storage provider, announced a new integration partnership for businesses to backup and protect their data. Transparent, scalable pricing allows customers to control their costs.

“There is a growing need for backup solutions and cloud storage which is simple to use and, even more important, has easy, predictable pricing. This integration partnership delivers those gains straight to businesses and IT teams,” said Tommi Kannisto, CEO of Storadera.

Data security is one of the easiest ways to ensure business continuity. A breach can have a serious impact on a business’s reputation. Comet Backup and Storadera allow businesses to keep their data safe and mitigate risk.

Comet’s chain-free, incremental forever technology allows for data to be deduplicated on the fly, transferring directly to Storadera’s S3 object storage with no spool space. Backups are incremental forever and after the first backup, customers never have to re-upload the full file again. The company’s commitment to data security includes AES-256 military-grade encryption, two-factor authentication and free auto-renewing SSL support. “Information security is at the center of everything we do,” said Mason Giles, Chief Technology Officer at Comet Backup.

Storadera is also engineered to meet stringent data security and privacy requirements. The service is built and managed according to security best practices and standards, and employs a defense-in-depth approach to protect against a wide array of threats.

Storadera supports a comprehensive set of data privacy and security capabilities to prevent unauthorized access. Strong user authentication features guard access to stored data. All data stored on Storadera is encrypted by default to protect data at rest. All communications with Storadera are transmitted using HTTPS to protect data in transit.

“This integration partnership is a win-win for any business looking to protect their data, whether they’re based in Europe or have locations worldwide,” said Josh Flores, General Manager at Comet Backup.

“Developers and Administrators spend endless capital and energy today in the cloud, never fully convinced if they have a proper 3-2-1 backup policy in-place.” said Zac Cohen, Co-Founder and COO at Filebase. “The speed and elegance of Comet Backup plus Filebase allows for automated and performant backups that are geo-distributed by default. The solution pays for itself immediately, because you aren’t required to build-out costly bucket replication policies just to have durable and performant data.”

Comet’s chain-free, incremental forever technology allows for data to be deduplicated on the fly, transferring directly to Filebase’s S3 object storage with no spool space. Backups are incremental forever and after the first backup, customers never have to re-upload the full file again. The company’s commitment to data security includes AES-256 military-grade encryption, two-factor authentication and free auto-renewing SSL support.

“We've seen increased demand for high-performance storage at a competitive price point and our integration partnership with Filebase allows Comet partners to access that,” said Josh Flores, General Manager at Comet Backup. “This is why we're excited for the benefits of Filebase's blockchain-powered, decentralized storage and Comet's own securely encrypted, deduplicated incremental backups working together.”
