Leviia Storag3: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Leviia Storag3 is an S3-compatible object storage service from the French company Leviia, intended for off-site backups. Backup software that supports the S3 protocol can write to it directly; the vendor names Veeam, Acronis, Commvault, Atempo, Synology and QNAP, among others. The service offers encryption in transit, support for client-side encryption, versioning and immutable storage. According to the vendor there are no fees for egress, deletion or API requests. Leviia delivers the service as cloud storage for companies and public bodies.

Leviia is a French SAS with its registered office in Montévrain; its legal notice names no parent company. According to the vendor, data is hosted exclusively in France, synchronised across three remote zones, on a fully open-source stack. Operations and hosting country therefore fall under French and European law. For a European organisation this is an alternative to US object storage from a French provider; check the exact locations and the key-management arrangements in the contract.
