The environmental impact of file transfers
File transfers, whether internal or external, account for a significant proportion of digital energy consumption. Between temporary storage, cloud computing and the network traffic generated, these data exchanges have a significant environmental cost that is often overlooked.
The Boavizta study reveals that 78% of companies expect their use of the cloud to grow by more than 10% a year between now and 2027. This exponential increase in data traffic and online storage underlines the urgency of adopting sustainable solutions to limit the carbon impact of these essential digital activities.
FileVert, an eco-designed solution “made in France”
It is in response to these challenges that FileVert has developed an eco-responsible transfer platform, entirely designed according to the principles of digital eco-conception. Hosted in France by Scaleway, a subsidiary of the Iliad group, FileVert not only guarantees data sovereignty, but also supports the local economy;
At the heart of its sustainable approach, FileVert relies on 100% green electricity supply certified by independent organizations. Thanks to this enlightened choice, the platform considerably limits its carbon footprint linked to energy consumption.
Eco-designed features for minimal impact
- Ultra-limited temporary storage: FileVert Transfert limits the average storage time of transferred files to just 12 days, thus reducing the energy footprint associated with permanent storage.
- Multi-source retrieval: the Hub single FileVert enables files to be retrieved from multiple sources simultaneously, eliminating time-consuming and energy-intensive download/return steps.
