Smart Stack 3.0 Introduction
Zantaz is proud to introduce Smart Stack 3.0, the Trusted Data Layer for Microsoft
Delivering AI-Ready Trusted Data @ Speed and Scale.
We do not compete with Microsoft. We strengthen it. Smart Stack 3.0 prepares the data that Microsoft's enterprise platform depends upon, curing the problem Microsoft intentionally does not solve at scale: untrusted enterprise data.

Three Core Solutions
Enterprise Communications
Trusted Data Archive
Compliance-grade journal archiving for Exchange and Microsoft 365. Captures and preserves enterprise communications with the defensibility, governance, and structure required for regulatory compliance and AI readiness.
Unstructured Operational Data
Trusted Data Refinery
Scans data in place across Windows File Shares and SharePoint, eliminates redundant, obsolete, and trivial content, enriches metadata, aligns ownership, and produces curated Trusted Data Collections ready for responsible AI use.
Intelligence Activation Layer
Trusted Data Portal
Mirrors only high-signal, policy-aligned information into OneLake, governs how AI systems interact with enterprise knowledge, reduces hallucination risk, lowers compute waste, and powers Copilot with AI-Ready Trusted Data @ Speed and Scale.
No per-user licensing fees
No usage penalties or limits
No activation license costs
9-month Systems Integrator included
All enhancements, new capabilities, and Smart Stack expansions released during the license term are included automatically.
Never pay for updates.
Never pay for additions.
Trusted Data Refinery
The Untrusted Data Problem
Every enterprise accumulates Untrusted Data, information that exists inside the organization but cannot be confidently used for analytics, compliance, or AI. Untrusted Data is the combination of Dark Data and Dirty Data.
Dark Data is unmanaged, unclassified, and often invisible content buried in file shares and SharePoint sprawl. Dirty Data is inaccurate, duplicated, outdated, or inconsistent data that degrades reporting and undermines AI reliability.
Individually, these conditions create operational friction. Together, they create strategic risk. AI systems do not correct Untrusted Data, they amplify it.
Trusted Data Refinery exists to reverse data entropy, but it does not have to be that way.
"Enterprises are stalled on AI, not because Microsoft is incomplete, but because their data is unready, unorganized, and unsafe for AI utilization and enterprise agents. Trusted Data Refinery eliminates Dark Data, the single greatest blocker to enterprise AI adoption, by refining it in place and mirroring only organized, high-value, AI-Ready data into OneLake at speed and scale. In weeks, not years, Copilot, Fabric, and enterprise AI move from pilots to productivity."

AI-Ready Data Feeder
Trusted Data Mirroring Will Only Mirror What Matters
Copilot is hungry for data. Microsoft Files and SharePoint are an organization's richest source of data. However, you cannot safely utilize this valuable Unstructured Data into Copilot without Trusted Data Mirroring.
Data mirroring is a pointer-based, policy-controlled reflection of the Trusted Data Collections that an organization authorizes for AI, not a wholesale copy. AI-Ready Data Feeder only mirrors data that has been fully processed by the Data Identifier:
Learn more about AI-Ready Data Feeder →No forklift migrations. No years-long backlogs. No uncontrolled data exposure.
- Enriched, classified, and tagged with metadata
- Scrubbed of ROT before it enters the AI environment
- High-signal, context-rich, and accurate
- Policy-approved and ready for Copilot consumption
"This guarantees that the data feeding Copilot is high-signal, context-rich, and accurate, eliminating the 'Garbage In, Garbage Out' problem that can destroy user trust in AI. AI-Ready Data Feeder using Trusted Mirroring transforms a high-risk, high-cost data problem into a highly organized, efficient, and AI-ready data asset."

Trusted Data Archive
Journal Archiving That Microsoft Doesn't Provide
Microsoft environments still lack true compliant journaling. Exchange Online and M365 cannot store journal reports, leaving users exposed without an external, immutable archive.
With our industry-leading Trusted Data Archive (EAS, HPCA, and Z Cloud), we serve as an organization's data intelligence, security, and retention-policy governance layer, making data safe, scalable, searchable, AI-ready, and economically productive:
Learn more about Journal Archiving →- Real-time journal capture with WORM retention
- Aligned to SEC 17a-4, FINRA, FCA, MiFID II, HIPAA
- Advanced SOLR and IDOL search for eDiscovery
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) ready for AI integration
"Copilot and GenAI now surface millions of historical emails per organization, making unorganized legacy communications a major operational, security, and regulatory risk. Zantaz's Trusted Data Archive makes Microsoft Exchange and 365 data safe, scalable, searchable, AI-ready, and economically productive."

The Missing Intelligence Layer
Understanding Microsoft's
Data and Governance Stack
Microsoft has a lot of moving parts, and Copilot sits across them rather than inside just one. The key to understanding it is to stop thinking of Copilot as a single product and start thinking of it as an AI layer that rides on top of Microsoft's entire data and governance stack.
The critical gap Microsoft doesn't talk about enough is that most enterprise data remains unstructured, unclassified, and chaotic, especially in file shares, legacy storage, and archives. That means Purview sees it shallowly, Copilot can't trust it, and AI answers become incomplete or risky.
Copilot's success is not an AI problem.
It's a data readiness problem.
Organizations that win with Copilot know where their data is, reduce Dark Data, govern before they generate, and feed AI only what matters. Zantaz delivers AI-Ready Trusted Data @ Speed and Scale.
