Calculate Your Data Transformation Savings
The financial impact of the Smart Stack 3.0 is transformative. While reducing storage footprint delivers meaningful savings, the most significant cost benefit comes from suppressing runaway compute consumption. Security scans, compliance searches, analytics workloads, and AI queries operating on bloated datasets are now among the most significant drivers of CIO budgets.
Storage Cost Reduction
Up to 60% of enterprise data is ROT — Redundant, Obsolete, and Trivial data. By identifying and eliminating ROT before it reaches your AI and analytics platforms, Smart Stack dramatically reduces storage costs. Compression and deduplication in our Trusted Data Archive further decrease an organization's licensing and storage costs.
Compute Cost Optimization
Compute costs are now typically 25% of a CIO's budget. By ensuring that only policy-approved Trusted Data is mirrored into OneLake and active AI environments, Zantaz dramatically reduces query volume, processing time, and unnecessary AI cycles. This upstream filtering lowers costs across the Microsoft stack while improving performance.
License Optimization
By handling the heavy lifting of compliance archiving, Smart Stack allows organizations to reduce their dependency on expensive Microsoft 365 E5 licenses, which are often purchased solely for their advanced compliance features. This can represent significant annual savings for large organizations.
Productivity Gains
When Copilot is fed with Zantaz-organized AI-Ready Trusted Data, its behavior changes noticeably. Responses become more accurate and relevant, hallucinations decrease, and user trust increases. This translates directly to productivity gains as employees spend less time verifying AI outputs and more time acting on reliable intelligence.
