Hybrid data platform
Hybrid Cloud Storage: an intelligent data storage solution.
Hybrid Cloud Storage combines HiTechCloud with Cloudian technology to address the storage management problems a business faces when it runs on-premises data infrastructure and public cloud services side by side.
A good fit for customers that need to store large volumes of data and require access speeds comparable to an internal system, while keeping that data securely protected and able to scale flexibly in the cloud.
Features
Optimize storage, retrieval, backup and protection of business data.
From capacity expansion and data security through to NAS controllers and local cache, HiTechCloud helps businesses build a more reliable hybrid storage platform.
01
Flexible scaling
Scale from terabytes to petabytes as your needs change, making it straightforward to expand storage capacity and improve data operations.
02
Safety and security
Meets the security requirements of the Object Storage model, with data encryption, access control, and support for enterprise data compliance.
03
High compatibility
Integrates with VMware, Veeam, Veritas, OpenShift, and public cloud platforms such as Google Cloud and Amazon through a tiering model.
04
Easy data retrieval
Extract visual content, search metadata efficiently with Elasticsearch and support deriving insight from your data.
05
Fast and cost-effective backup
Compatible with common backup solutions, up to 70% cheaper than traditional backup appliances and faster to access than tape.
06
Comprehensive data protection
Data is replicated three times across three separate servers, with AES-256 encryption plus WORM and versioning support to reduce the risk of accidental deletion or overwrite.
07
HyperFile NAS Controller
An optimal mix of file storage and object storage, with SMB/NFS/FTP, snapshots and AD + LDAP authentication.
08
Local cache
Provides an on-premises local cache for fast access, reduces dependence on internet bandwidth, and syncs data to the cloud automatically.
Native S3 API
Highly compatible with storage, backup and cloud-native ecosystems.
Hybrid Cloud Storage integrates with backup, recovery, file sharing and data storage solutions from VMware, Veeam, Veritas and OpenShift, as well as public cloud platforms.
- Integrates with existing S3 applications and workflows.
- Supports data tiering to Google Cloud or Amazon.
- Streamlines operations across private, hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Native S3 API
Backup • Archive • Data lake • Cloud-native apps
Data protection
Comprehensive data protection, reducing the risk of loss or unintended change.
Critical data is protected with multi-copy replication, encryption, versioning and WORM to maintain integrity in strictly controlled operating scenarios.
- Data is synchronized as three copies across three separate servers.
- Data encrypted to the AES-256 standard.
- WORM protects data from unauthorized deletion or modification.
- Versioning lets you recover content that has been deleted or overwritten.
HyperFile NAS Controller
Combines file storage and object storage in a single solution.
The HyperFile NAS Controller provides the full feature set of an enterprise NAS while taking advantage of the scalability and durability of object storage.
- Multi-protocol access via SMB, NFS and FTP.
- Snapshots for critical data.
- User authentication with AD + LDAP.
- Simplifies file and object administration on one architecture.
Local cache
A local cache provides fast on-premise access.
The hybrid model supports caching data on the customer's own systems. Administrators get faster access without depending entirely on Internet bandwidth, while processed data is synchronized to the cloud automatically to keep it safe.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Quick facts before deploying Hybrid Cloud Storage at HiTechCloud.
What is Hybrid Cloud Storage?
Hybrid Cloud Storage is HiTechCloud's hybrid storage solution, combining on-premises and cloud infrastructure for file storage, object storage, backup and large-scale data.
Which businesses is this solution right for?
The solution suits businesses with large data volumes that need fast on-premises access but also want to scale, protect and back up data securely in the cloud.
Is Hybrid Cloud Storage compatible with the S3 API?
Yes. The solution supports the native S3 API, integrating with existing applications, SDKs, backup tools and S3 workflows.
Can file and object storage be used at the same time?
Yes. With the HyperFile NAS Controller option, you can combine file storage and object storage in a single solution, with SMB, NFS and FTP support.
How does the local cache work?
A local cache on the on-premises system gives users faster access to data, which is then synchronized to the cloud automatically for safekeeping.
How is data protected?
Data can be replicated in multiple copies, encrypted with AES-256, and protected with WORM, versioning, access control and security policies set to your requirements.
Does Hybrid Cloud Storage support backup?
Yes. The solution works with common backup platforms such as Veeam, Veritas and VMware, and supports backup policies targeting a remote site or the cloud.
Does HiTechCloud provide deployment architecture consulting?
Yes. The HiTechCloud team advises on deployment model, capacity, tiering, local cache, backup, permissions and an appropriate data protection strategy.
