You get true immutability, zero-trust data protection, and freedom to deploy on your hardware — all in a single, streamlined solution. DATA SHEET ARTESCA+ Veeam Unified software appliance GET THE DATASHEET  Unified backup + storage in a single software appliance — no silos, no sprawl  End-to-end cyber resilience powered by immutable, S3 object storage  Instant, orchestrated recovery for fast, clean, and confident restores  Software-defined freedom — deploy on your terms, no proprietary lock-in  Up to 30% lower TCO with predictable licensing and hardware flexibility Why ARTESCA+ Veeam? Better simplicity, security, and recovery — without the trade-offs of Rubrik appliances Rubrik’s appliance-based setup may look easy at first, but it locks you into expensive hardware, limits your flexibility, and slows down recovery when it matters most. ARTESCA+ Veeam is the smarter alternative. It’s a software-only solution that simplifies deployment, eliminates appliance bloat, and gives you full control over cost and infrastructure — without compromising performance or protection.

More and more are replacing Dell EMC Data Domain with Scality ARTESCA. Data Domain was built for a different era when backups ran overnight, deduplication ruled, and restore speed wasn’t a top priority. Today, that architecture feels slow, rigid, and hard to secure. Appliance sprawl, proprietary lock-in, and clunky management only add to the pain. ARTESCA is next-gen backup storage — software-defined, S3-native, and cyber-resilient by design. With built-in immutability, zero-trust security, and rapid restore performance at scale, it’s simple to deploy, easy to manage, and ready for modern threats.
