MSP gains in peace of mind and performance with Scality ARTESCA
About SI Cloud
Since 2017, managed service provider SI Cloud has supported nearly 400 small and mid-size businesses in their digital transformation. Based in eastern France, the company delivers sovereign cloud, hosting, and backup services built on three pillars: proximity, trust, and data sovereignty.
Legacy systems with manual updates and complex procedures couldn’t support the dependable, sovereign, Veeam-integrated S3 backup service SI Cloud’s customers expected.
With ARTESCA, SI Cloud delivers instant restores with no slowdown, reclaimed 70% of storage capacity through intelligent optimization, and runs reliable, sovereign, Veeam-compatible backups.
The Challenge
Making sovereign backup simpler, faster, and more reliable
Deliver reliable, sovereign external S3 backup services
Escape time-consuming updates and complex procedures
Ensure smooth, full compatibility with Veeam
SI Cloud was known for quality service, but legacy systems were holding them back. Manual updates consumed valuable time, operations lacked fluidity, and their existing setup couldn’t support the dependable S3 backup service customers expected.
To continue delivering on its commitment to sovereignty and trust, SI Cloud needed a modern, immutable backup architecture that would integrate seamlessly with Veeam while reducing operational overhead.
We needed a modern, immutable solution that was perfectly integrated with Veeam. With ARTESCA, we found much more than that. We found peace of mind.

Solution
A smooth, personal, and effective partnership with Scality
After evaluating MinIO and Dell, SI Cloud chose Scality ARTESCA for its unique combination of performance, reliability, and sovereign data management. The solution also came with responsive, French-based support that reflected the company’s own values.
Deployed on Dell hardware, the rollout was fast and seamless, with native integration with Veeam Backup & Replication. Scality’s team stood out for its hands-on, collaborative approach — a human touch that turned a technical project into a true partnership.
