Xandeum today launched Oxorro, a storage platform built so that the data stored on it remains accessible even if Oxorro itself disappears.
The premise is unusual. Most storage products are designed around the assumption that the provider will still be there when the customer needs the data. Oxorro is designed around the assumption that the provider might not be, and that the customer should not have to care.
In May 2024, Google Cloud accidentally deleted UniSuper’s private cloud subscription, cutting off access for more than 620,000 pension fund members. Recovery depended on backups that happened to exist elsewhere. Most organizations do not have that kind of fallback. Oxorro is built so they do not need one.
“Every storage vendor in the world will tell you their service is reliable, and most of them are right, most of the time,” said Bernie Blume, founder and CEO of Xandeum. “We are not in that business. We are in the business of making sure that when something does go wrong, whether it is a vendor failure, a policy change, or a jurisdiction shift, the data is still there, still accessible, and still under the customer’s control. We call it Unstoppable Operational Data, and we built Oxorro to deliver it.”
Oxorro presents to users as a familiar file system, with directories, files, permissions, and real-time read and write access. It is designed to work alongside existing infrastructure rather than replace it, so organizations can route the operational data that matters most through Oxorro while leaving the rest of their stack untouched.
