Object First

Object First makes Ootbi, an out-of-the-box S3-compatible object storage appliance designed specifically as a backup target for Veeam Backup and Replication. Built on immutable storage with native object lock, Ootbi delivers fast restores, simple deployment, and ransomware resilience without separate hardening of repositories. The company was founded by Veeam co-founders and targets organizations seeking purpose-built immutable backup storage rather than repurposed general-purpose arrays.
