Public Sector Data Management
Public Sector Data Management
Manage Your Data Footprint to Reduce Costs.
Modernization + Compliance in Public Sector
Public sector IT teams must balance service delivery with strict compliance mandates and limited budgets. Government and public sector data is stored in a variety of formats and systems that support specific programs, departments and agencies. Legal mandates like the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) require data retention without clear deletion paths, which exacerbate data storage costs. Other challenges include:
- Agencies must ensure secure 24/7 access to citizen online tools and public safety operations, which can require upgrading legacy infrastructure and adopting new platforms as data grows.
- Government IT teams are seeking to archive older data to the cloud for cost savings, yet security and compliance concerns prevail.
- Unstructured data in the public sector is often incomplete, inconsistent, or poorly labeled, making it difficult to leverage for AI.
Managing data growth within lean budgets is a key priority. By identifying cold data and managing it differently, we are able to do more with less.

Use Cases
Cut Costs by Archiving Cold Data in the Cloud
Bodycams, surveillance videos and other technologies are creating huge unstructured data growth for municipalities. Komprise helps them identify cold data and transparently tier file data to the cloud, reducing backup footprint and saving costs—with zero disruption.
Key Benefits for the Public Sector
Cut Storage Costs with Data Insight and Control
Get insights into your data across storage silos, vendors, and technologies, so you can make the data moves you want to significantly reduce costs. With Komprise Intelligent Data Management, agencies can stay in complete control of their data—no limits, no impact to users or apps, no vendor lock-in.
Migrate Data with Integrity
Public records laws mandate long-term accessibility, requiring that you preserve metadata and permissions during the migration. Common migration tools don’t offer this and can’t scale without data loss or disruption. Komprise Elastic Data Migration offers 25x faster migrations over LAN and WAN for SMB and NFS files, along with a host of reliability and data integrity features so you can transfer data with confidence.
Tier Data to Cloud With Controls & Transparency
Set your policies and Komprise Transparent Move Technology™ seamlessly migrates data without any changes to your user experience, applications, or hot data.
- Move data to lower-cost storage alternatives without disruption
- Tier and archive data off primary storage to save and cut backup times
- Ensure users can access their data the same as before
Metadata Enrichment for Compliance
Government data includes sensitive personal and national information subject to strict regulations such as FISMA, FedRAMP and GDPR-equivalent policies. Komprise delivers a global file index that supports ad hoc queries to discover incompliant data storage practices, metadata tagging, audit trails, sensitive data detection and confinement and AI data lineage tracking.
Learn how Komprise unstructured data management can help public sector organizations take better control of your data to reduce storage costs and accelerate modern analytics initiatives.
