Our Mission

Cost-Effective, Secure, Easy & AI-Ready

Enterprise data grows relentlessly, yet 80% of it sits cold and inactive. Despite this reality, IT departments continue paying premium prices to store petabytes on platforms designed for performance, not longevity. Traditional archives offer cost relief but create "dark data", files effectively lost once stored. This structural inefficiency has become one of the largest hidden taxes in enterprise IT, forcing organizations into a false choice: pay too much or lose access.

CAEVES was built to attack this problem head-on. We refuse the trade-off between cost and access. By treating storage as an economics problem rather than a performance race, we deliver cost-optimized, deep, searchable infrastructure that preserves visibility, control, and future readiness. Archives become usable assets, not compliance graveyards. Data remains indexed and AI-ready.

Organizations cut costs up to 70% without sacrificing access or options. In a market full of abstraction and over-promising, we're deliberately direct: smarter economics, preserved access, customer sovereignty. Always.

Our Promise

Driving Cost Efficiency

CAEVES is built on the conviction that storage is fundamentally an economics problem, not a performance race.

Most enterprise data does not require premium performance, yet it is often priced and managed as if it does. CAEVES addresses this imbalance by optimizing for total cost of ownership while preserving the access, security, and usability that matter to the business. By replacing expensive and complex on-premises infrastructure or high-cost cloud file services with a cloud-native, pay-as-you-grow platform.

CAEVES reduces storage TCO by up to 70%.

Historical archive data is no longer treated as a sunk cost but transformed into a strategic asset through continuous accessibility, search and AI-Readiness. Automated data tiering moves data transparently to Microsoft Azure’s lowest-cost object storage tiers, ensuring predictable and sustainable long-term storage economics.

Secure, Compliant & No Vendor Lock-in

No SaaS Vendor lock-in. No external control planes. Your data, your tenant, your rules. 

CAEVES is built on the principle that customers must retain full control over their data, their environment, and their security posture.
The solution deploys entirely within the customer’s own Microsoft Azure tenant, with no external SaaS control planes and no vendor lock-in.
 
Data is protected through end-to-end encryption at rest and in transit, while existing NTFS and Entra ID permissions are preserved and consistently enforced across file access, Microsoft 365 Search & Copilot experiences, while aligning with enterprise governance, regulatory, and data residency requirements without introducing additional risk.

Easy to Implement, Manage & Use

CAEVES is built on the belief that enterprise storage should be simple to deploy, effortless to operate, and immediately useful.
 
The platform can be provisioned in under 30 minutes, requires no changes to user workflows, and delivers instant access to all data without rehydration or delay. Unlike legacy archives, CAEVES enables up to 50x faster search while keeping data continuously available to users, applications, and Microsoft 365 Search & Copilot through native integration via the CAEVES Copilot Connector™.
 
There is no need to design or manage separate RAG pipelines, and no user training is required. The result is a storage foundation that reduces complexity, accelerates time to value, and allows teams to focus on outcomes rather than infrastructure.
 
 

AI-Ready

CAEVES is designed to make enterprise data immediately usable for search and AI without introducing new complexity.

By integrating directly with Microsoft 365 Search and Copilot, CAEVES enables instant search, discovery and AI-assisted insights across both active and historical data. Files are indexed with full context and permissions, supporting semantic search and retrieval-augmented insights without the need to design, deploy, or manage separate RAG pipelines and expensive infrastructure.

The platform provides a secure, extensible foundation that can connect to AI services when required, ensuring organizations can adopt AI at their own pace while keeping data accessible, governed, and ready for intelligence-driven use cases.
