Acronis launched Acronis Archival Storage, a long-term retention service intended to provide durable, encrypted, compliance-ready storage for infrequently accessed data used by managed service providers (MSPs) and small-to-medium businesses (SMBs).

The announcement described integrated billing and a predictable Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) intended to help MSPs manage long-term retention requirements while avoiding egress and Application Programming Interface (API) fees, and it positioned the offering as a way for service providers to offer defined pricing and margins for archival workloads.

The solution used S3-compatible object storage integrated with Acronis’ unified billing and management system and included millisecond retrieval, 11×9 durability, and 99.5% availability. Encryption and WORM immutability were listed as data integrity controls, and the product shipped with preconfigured plans, S3 API support, integrated controls, and a footprint of seven data centers.

Acronis released the archival option through the Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud platform, added a Cold Storage Tier (CST) to its cyber protection ecosystem, and highlighted a storage partnership with Seagate Lyve Cloud as part of the offering; the company said the service was available now for MSPs and their Server Message Block (SMB) customers.

“For many customers, regulations and industry best practices require data to be retained for years,” said Gaidar Magdanurov, President at Acronis. “With Acronis Archival Storage, MSPs can now provide their clients with long-term storage built for compliance readiness, cost predictability and ease of use. Native integration with Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud makes using archival storage effortless.”

“Data’s true value is realized when organizations can securely preserve, access, and harness it for innovation and insight,” said Melyssa Banda, SVP, Edge Enterprise Storage and Services at Seagate. “Our partnership with Acronis ensures archival data is protected and accessible for compliance, AI, and more, with economic predictability and peace of mind—secured by Seagate Lyve Cloud.”
