Streamlining Finance Data Archiving with Cloud-Driven Efficiency

 A leading financial consultancy found itself overwhelmed by the rapid growth of sensitive financial data and the rising costs of traditional storage. To overcome these challenges, the organization turned to StoneFly’s Data Aware Cloud Archiving Solution—and the impact was immediate.

By implementing StoneFly’s cloud-based archiving, the company achieved significant cost savings compared to legacy hardware storage. Brandon, the Head of IT, emphasized its simplicity and scalability, noting how effortlessly it accommodated the organization’s expanding data needs.

Because the solution is hardware-agnostic, it required no specialized appliances and could be deployed on widely used servers. This flexibility was particularly appreciated by Jane, a DevOps engineer, who highlighted its ease of installation.

The platform further enhanced operational efficiency through automated data tiering and policy-driven archiving. These capabilities eliminated the burden of manual oversight, allowing the IT team to focus on higher-value tasks. Jane praised the solution for dramatically reducing the complexity traditionally associated with archiving large volumes of data.

For a financial consultancy operating under strict regulatory frameworks, compliance was essential. StoneFly’s solution ensured adherence to critical standards such as FINRA, the Graham-Leach-Bliley Act, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act—providing a secure and compliant environment for long-term data retention.

Ultimately, StoneFly’s Data Aware Cloud Archiving Solution empowered the consultancy to streamline its archiving processes while improving cost efficiency, scalability, automation, and regulatory compliance. This modernization allowed the organization to reallocate resources toward core business objectives and operate with greater agility.
