Input
User-supplied raw-disk cost
Standard spinning repository
A spinning repository without appliance-class reduction has to scale close to the effective protected capacity. Enter that quote in the model below.
Storage Economics
Compare backup repository cost models.
Petabyte-scale effective backup capacity with fewer disks, fewer shelves and EBA included in the Sendense platform.
Veeam native data reduction can help, but large backup repositories often still force a choice: scale standard spinning disk or add a deduplicating appliance. Sendense EBA brings repository efficiency into the platform layer.
EBA adds commodity disk behind the same repository engine. Traditional designs keep expanding shelves or appliance spend. Any cost difference depends on the quotes and assumptions you enter.

Repository Designs
Same Capacity Target. Different Cost Inputs.
Compare three repository approaches against the same capacity target. Competitor quotes and hardware costs stay hidden until you enter them. Capacity and reduction equivalence must already be reflected in those quotes. Outputs are arithmetic from those inputs, not expected Sendense savings.
Input
User-supplied appliance quote
Dedupe-appliance design
A deduplicating appliance can reduce disk footprint, but the appliance quote is still a design input. This page does not publish a competitor price.
Input
User-supplied hardware cost
Sendense EBA design
EBA fingerprints, deduplicates and compresses VM data. Actual reduction depends on workload mix, change rate and retention. Enter a hardware-design cost to compare arithmetic.
Capacity Model
Three Repository Designs. One Capacity Target.
Compare a standard spinning repository, a deduplicating appliance design and a Sendense EBA repository design. Enter three costs; the page will not prefill competitor or Sendense prices.
Incremental expansion costs are not published here. Describe the next hardware step with your own disk, shelf and appliance quotes.
User-supplied assumptions
Compare repository arithmetic you enter.
No competitor quote or saving is published until you enter three repository costs. Capacity and reduction equivalence must already be reflected in the quotes you enter. Outputs are arithmetic from those inputs, not expected Sendense savings.
Comparative percentages stay hidden until three repository costs are supplied.
Scale Comparison
Sendense EBA stays lean. External repository options get heavier.
This compares the incremental Sendense EBA hardware step with two non-Sendense repository choices: a raw spinning repository build and a quoted dedupe appliance path.

Input
Raw repository expansion

CSP Margin Model
Backup Storage Economics Built for CSP Margin.
For a provider selling protected capacity every month, repository capex is part of the service margin. This page does not publish a default price per TB or a payback period.
Enter your own protected-capacity price and hardware quotes if you want arithmetic. Outputs exclude support, power, server chassis, RAID/spare overhead, finance cost, software packaging and customer-specific operating costs.
Capacity, EBA hardware cost, billed revenue and any recovery-of-capex period stay blank until you supply those assumptions in the model above. They are not Sendense proof.
Why Sendense EBA
Repository Efficiency Belongs in the Platform.
The value is not only the first purchase. Fewer disks also means less power, less cooling, less rack space, fewer disk failures and less time spent designing around a specialist appliance.
01
EBA Included
Deduplication, compression, retention and direct recovery behavior are part of the Sendense repository path.
02
NVMe Write Tier
A mirrored SSD tier absorbs hot write behavior while capacity sits on commodity spinning disk.
03
Lower Failure Surface
Fewer HDDs and shelves reduce the number of moving parts in the repository estate.
04
Service Margin
CSPs can sell protected capacity without repository capex consuming the service margin.

Assumptions
Assumptions Behind the Model.
The model stays empty until you enter assumptions so customer-specific quotes stay visible and are not presented as Sendense results.
01How does this compare with Veeam native data reduction?
Veeam includes native compression and data reduction features, but that is not the same repository model as Sendense EBA. For appliance-class repository economics, Veeam estates often have to choose between scaling standard raw disk or adding a deduplicating storage appliance.
02What dedupe and compression ratio is used?
No reduction ratio is published as a Sendense result. Capacity and reduction equivalence must already be reflected in the three repository quotes you enter. Actual results depend on workload similarity, operating systems, change rate, retention depth, encryption scope and backup policy.
03What is included in the Sendense EBA cost examples?
This page does not publish default EBA hardware prices. Enter the hardware-design cost you want to compare. EBA repository capability is included with Sendense; disk, shelf and server costs are separate inputs.
04Why can the arithmetic gap widen with scale?
EBA scales by adding commodity capacity behind the repository engine. Raw spinning repositories and dedupe appliances keep adding larger hardware blocks. Whether that gap appears in a live estate depends on the quotes you enter, not on a published Sendense saving.
This page does not publish UK storage quotes, commodity disk prices, a default reduction ratio or a Sendense hardware bill of materials. Figures you enter exclude tax, support contracts, server chassis, RAID/spare overhead, power/cooling, finance costs and customer-specific implementation work unless you include those items yourself.
