XenData Limited is a computer data storage company based in Cambridge, UK and Walnut Creek, California in the United States. The company develops and builds active archive systems for secure long-term retention of digital content.

History[edit]

XenData was founded in 2001 by Philip Storey and Mark Broadbent and is a privately held company. The company’s first products were active archives based on a Windows server platform, storing files to data tape in a robotic library.[1] Over the next 13 years, it grew its customer base for tape-based active archives, especially in the media and entertainment sector.

XenData active archive systems included a disk cache for enhanced functionality.[2] In 2013, SSD technology options were added for improved performance.[3]

By 2014, XenData had expanded its product portfolio to include active archives that store digital content on Optical Disc Archives[4] and, by 2017, it was offering products that archived to cloud object storage.[5]

In 2020, XenData joined the Active Archive Alliance, an international association that promotes solutions for data lifecycle management.[6]

In late 2021, XenData announced the availability of an object storage interface for all existing and new installations which converts an on-premises active archive into private cloud storage.[7]

And in 2022, XenData started shipping scalable archives based on its new X100 platform, which can grow to manage over 100 PB of digital content.[8]
