XenData, privately owned and headquartered in the United Kingdom, founded in 2001, operates with approximately 20 employees. The company reported $2.3M in revenue as of 2024. Its main product is media cloud and storage, functioning as a developer and provider of scalable on-premises and public cloud data storage systems. It specializes in video archive systems which manage files on RAID, robotic LTO tape libraries, robotic Sony ODA libraries, and/or in cloud object storage.
On August 6, 2026, XenData announced it will introduce a trio of new appliances at IBC2026, designed for archiving to LTO tape libraries. These appliances will offer simultaneous access as both a file system and S3 object storage, incorporating a disk or SSD fast storage tier for write caching and intelligent pre-fetching to enhance performance. Previously, on July 14, 2026, the company initially announced these three LTO archive appliances, which are capable of managing highly scalable LTO libraries, with an example illustrating the X50 V3 Appliance managing a 2.1 PB LTO library expandable to over 16 PB. The appliances combine file and object archive access within a single tape archive, storing data on LTO data tape in robotic libraries, stand-alone drives, on-premises disk-based object storage, or public cloud object storage.
