Scale without silos
Manage large object estates through a single distributed namespace.
Built on NetApp StorageGRID
One sovereign platform. Every stage of your data.
Hexion combines StorageGRID intelligence with distributed E-Series storage nodes in South Africa, giving organisations one managed object platform from active storage through protection and archive.

Full storage lifecycle control
S3 access

Policy automation
Lifecycle control
Multi-tenancy
Distributed resilience
Independent locations. One governed grid.
StorageGRID treats sites and storage pools as one managed environment. Information lifecycle policies determine where object data is placed and how it is protected.

Cloud tiering remains a policy choice. Lifecycle rules can move selected object data to compatible cloud storage while Hexion keeps the operating model clear.
Intelligent lifecycle management
Put policy behind every object.
Define how data enters, where it stays, how it is protected, and when it transitions or expires. Policies work in the background as the estate changes.
- 01
Ingest
Bring data in through S3
- 02
Active
Keep current data ready
- 03
Protect
Replicate by policy
- 04
Transition
Move to the right tier
- 05
Archive
Retain colder data
- 06
Expire
Remove when policy allows
Customer value
Control without adding storage silos.
The platform brings placement, protection, access and visibility into one operating layer.
Protection by policy
Place replicated or erasure-coded copies according to workload needs.
Location-aware control
Direct data placement across sites and storage pools through lifecycle rules.
Immutable when required
Support protected retention with S3 Object Lock and controlled access.
Dense, efficient storage
E-Series nodes combine capacity density with redundant storage controllers.
Secure S3 access
Separate tenants, buckets and access credentials while keeping operations visible.
One clear interface
See the grid. Manage the tenant.
Hexion Storage Manager provides a practical view of buckets, capacity and tenant access, backed by StorageGRID administration and distributed infrastructure.
- Monitor capacity and usage
- Manage S3 buckets and access
- Operate through one Hexion service
