Data archiving
Archiving allows you to store documents you no longer use in a secure space, while reducing storage costs and complying with legal retention obligations.

Every day, companies produce ever-larger volumes of data.
The XEFI archiving solution is designed for long-term storage of “cold” data: HR files, accounting documents, medical files, etc.
It includes technical supervision and automatic replication to one of our other data centres.
You keep control of your archives, without having to manage the technical complexity.
