PUCE Storage · Enterprise

PUCE Storage

Enterprise storage with deduplication, compression, and quantum-safe encryption.

Try it — your file, post-quantum encrypted

Real upload with your account: encrypted in the browser (ML-KEM-768) BEFORE it leaves, presigned URL, never through our server.

Storage redesigned for the post-quantum era

Three pillars that set PUCE Storage apart from any legacy solution.

Smart Deduplication

Eliminates duplicate data before compression, reducing storage costs by up to 60%.

Multi-Cloud

Integrates with AWS S3, Azure Blob, Google Cloud Storage, and on-premises storage.

Compliance

Ready for FIPS 140-3, HIPAA, GDPR, LGPD. Self-assessment tools included.

Storage pipeline

5 stages executed on every write operation — fully transparent to the client.

01

Ingestion

Data arrives via SDK (Python/Node/Rust/Go) or REST API. Each object is split into 64 MB chunks for parallel transfer.

02

Deduplication & Compression

Inline deduplication via content hashing. High-ratio lossless compression for optimal CPU–space balance. Typical 60–75% reduction in stored volume.

03

PQ Encryption

Each chunk is encrypted with ML-KEM-768 + AES-256-GCM (FIPS 203). Ephemeral keys never persisted. Optional client-side encryption for zero-knowledge.

04

Automatic tiering

Hot → Warm → Cold based on access frequency. Transparent migration without URL changes. Configurable retention per bucket (7d – 10 years).

05

Multi-region replication

Synchronous or asynchronous replication across 3+ regions. Automatic failover. Compliance with data residency requirements (GDPR, NIS2).

Use cases

Four scenarios where PUCE Storage is the obvious choice.

Enterprise backup

Replace legacy backup solutions with PQ-encrypted storage. Deduplication cuts volume by 60-75%. Automatic retention and tiering eliminates manual management.

Regulated data

Healthcare (HIPAA), financial (PCI-DSS) and government (NIS2) data requires strong encryption and audit trail. PUCE Storage provides both by design.

Post-quantum data lake

Store petabytes of analytics data with PQ protection from ingestion. S3-compatible API integrates with Spark, Trino and existing tools.

Legal & forensic archive

Legal documents and forensic evidence need long-term verifiable integrity. SHA3-256 hash + Merkle tree provides tamper-proof evidence.

Backup software integration scenarios

4 ways to integrate PUCE with any backup system — each with different trade-offs between deduplication, compression and post-quantum protection.

Scenario A — Compress-Only Pre-Backup

Recommended · Universal

App/DB (100 TB) → PUCE compress-only (30 TB) → Backup dedup+compress → ~15 TB

Typical ratio:6-7:1
Backup dedup works (data is not encrypted)
Compatible with any backup software
Reduces FETB licenses — pay 30 TB instead of 100 TB
⚠No post-quantum protection (encryption is classic from backup)

Scenario B — Full Pipeline Pre-Backup

Dedup caveat

App/DB (100 TB) → PUCE compress+encrypt+sign (~22 TB) → Backup (dedup ~0%) → ~22 TB

Typical ratio:4-5:1
Full PQ end-to-end protection
Compatible with any backup software
⚠Backup dedup does not work (encrypted data looks random)
⚠Only recommended when dedup is not needed

Scenario C — Integrated in Backup Engine

Deep integration

App/DB (100 TB) → Backup [Dedup → PUCE Engine (replaces compression) → PQ Encrypt] → ~10 TB

Typical ratio:8-10:1
Dedup works 100% (PUCE acts after)
ML-select compression superior to native
PQ encryption on storage
⚠Requires deep integration (SBT_TAPE for Oracle, VDI for SQL Server, etc.)
⚠Support varies by backup system

Scenario D — Post-Dedup, Pre-Storage

Ideal · Best overall

App/DB (100 TB) → Backup [Dedup → 40 TB] → PUCE Storage [ML-Select Compress → PQ Encrypt+Sign] → ~8 TB

Typical ratio:10-15:1
Dedup works 100%
ML-select compression on already deduped data
Full PQ encryption on storage
Digital signature on each block
Compatible with all systems
⚠Does not reduce FETB license (backup sees original volume)
⚠Requires access to post-dedup point
