Exaba Object Storage

Exaba is a software-defined, S3-compatible object storage platform that service providers run on their own hardware. It enables partners to become LocalScalers: local providers of cloud services, delivering storage from facilities they control. Built for managed service providers, cloud providers, and data-centre operators, Exaba runs object storage applications such as ransomware-resilient backup, archive, and long-term retention on commodity x86_64, ARM, or Power servers.

Common questions

What can I use Exaba for? Exaba is S3-compatible object storage for applications such as ransomware-resilient backup, archive, and long-term retention. Because it speaks the standard S3 API, any S3-compatible application can use it. See Features.

Is Exaba built for MSPs and service providers? Yes. Exaba enables service providers to become LocalScalers, running white-label, multi-tenant storage and Backup-as-a-Service on hardware they own and control. See Positioning.

Is Exaba ransomware-resilient? Yes. Backups are written to immutable S3 Object Lock repositories, enforced at the storage layer, and this configuration is Certified for Veeam Ready. See Veeam Backup & Replication.

Is Exaba S3-compatible? Yes. Exaba implements the core S3 API (PUT, GET, DELETE, LIST, HEAD, versioning, multipart, and tagging), so standard S3 clients, SDKs, and backup tools work against it. See Features.

Can I run Exaba in production under Docker? Docker is for evaluation only. Production deployments run on Rocky Linux 10 / RHEL 10 across x86_64, ARM, or Power. See Docker / Instant Evaluation.

Does Exaba host my data? No. Exaba is software you run on your own hardware, in your own data center, sovereign by design.
