GRAU DATA and COMBACK Expand Partnership for XtreemStore
2026-05-13 09:36
The XtreemStore is a completely new development designed for companies that need to store and manage extremely large amounts of data - up to several petabytes. This hardware-independent, scalable, and object-based software solution comes standard with an S3 interface and is designed for data archiving from disk to tape media. The GRAU DATA XtreemStore Object Store eliminates the limitations of hierarchical storage in traditional file systems and block storage. Applications include universities, research institutions, libraries, and organizations in the healthcare sector, as well as enterprise companies.
A unique feature is the additional DICOM/HL7 interface, which is available exclusively through the partnership with COMBACK. This open interface, in combination with the S3 interface, is particularly important for the healthcare market, as it enables the archiving of large data volumes independently of PACS manufacturers while also representing a more cost-effective alternative.
“With our new XtreemStore, we are targeting companies that need to store and manage very large data volumes efficiently and without the technical limitations of conventional storage solutions. For this, we need a competent partner who, first of all, is very familiar with this specific IT environment and who also has access to companies and organizations that require such solutions. With COMBACK, we have exactly the right partner at our side, and we look forward to many joint XtreemStore projects, the first of which are already in the planning phase with customers,” says Harry Weik, Head of Sales & Marketing at GRAU DATA GmbH.
“With XtreemStore as an object-based software solution, particularly for the long-term storage and archiving of files, we deliver significant added value to our customers. As COMBACK, we offer the solution both as an on-premise installation and as a service in our data centers. Our customers can use XtreemStore as a stand-alone object storage solution or in combination with our DPArchive archiving solution. Another option is integration with PACS systems via the DICOM/HL7 interface. With GRAU DATA’s XtreemStore, we are rounding out our portfolio in the area of archiving and long-term storage,” says Marcus Stier, Head of Product Management at COMBACK GmbH.
