Scalable S3 Object Store Software for Tape
XtreemStore delivers an S3-compatible object store that combines modern cloud interfaces with energy-efficient tape storage, enabling cost-effective long-term archiving at massive scale.
XtreemStore’s integrated NoSQL database efficiently manages billions of objects, while its distributed architecture enables horizontal scaling without compromising fault tolerance. The system excels in both enterprise data centers and as a scalable remote archive solution for Managed Service Providers (MSPs).
Scalable performance from terabytes to exabytes with tunable performance
Whether used as a standalone archiving solution or to complement a 3-2-1 backup strategy, XtreemStore provides unparalleled scalability, data security, and storage efficiency.
Built on LTFS and TAR for guaranteed future accessibility and data longevity
Native S3 Glacier interface plus comprehensive REST API capabilities
Simplified tape operations through WebGUI and CLI interfaces
Leverages tape technology for optimal total cost of ownership (TCO)
Handles billions of objects from terabytes to hundreds of petabytess.
Policy-based disk cache utilizing internal disk or SAN for tunable read/write operation
Multi-tape copy support, multi-site replication, and air gap security against ransomware
Manage multiple tape libraries with up to four copies per library
REST API for third-party integration and advanced metadata access
Leverages metadata intelligence to drive storage policies, data governance, and lifecycle management
Enforces data compliance through object lock capabilities, client segmentation for strict regulatory requirements

Which standards does the XtreemStore software support?
XtreemStore writes TAR containers in LTFS format to magnetic tapes. This enables customers to read out the data in the long term even without the XtreemStore software.
What hardware does the XtreemStore software support?
The XtreemStore software supports all common server, disk and tape libraries. Currently, LTO drives and LTO tapes from LTO 6 to LTO 9 are supported.
Long-term hardware independence is an essential product criterion.
Which interface does the XtreemStore software support?
The XtreemStore software supports the S3 interface according to the AWS specification.
The S3 AWS Glacier Command Set is also supported. his means that all applications that support this command set can use the XtreemStore software as an alternative.
Optionally or additionally, there is also a Windows- and Linux-based file system interface (XtreemStore Client).
How scalable is the XtreemStore software?
The very highly scalable embedded NoSQL database has no known limitations on objects. In order to increase the data throughput, several parallel servers can be installed, which means that in addition to vertical scalability, horizontal scalability is also possible.
In practical tests, 1.5 billion files were written to a bucket without any impairment of performance being measured. If necessary, the number of buckets can be expanded almost at will.
With the XtreemStore software, customers are prepared for the “exabyte age”.
