Unstructured data is the lifeblood of any organization and the ability to seamlessly deliver, analyze for insights, enable automation, and transform companies is priceless. But if you choose the wrong provider, costly egress fees may lock you into a single hyperscaler, making it difficult to move data to another cloud as needed.

Rackspace Data Freedom enables you to remove these barriers by storing data centrally, outside of any cloud, and transporting it via our private, fast and secure global network backbone while ensuring your data is available to any cloud service.

Whether public cloud, private, hybrid or multicloud, Rackspace Technology has the solution to make your data work for you, regardless of where it’s located.
