Speed Technology:
After years of research and development, Zoolz utilizes state of the art technology for lighting speed
backup and performance
• Global Deduplication
• We check the file unique hash to see if a file like it been uploaded or not (not supported on
custom encryption)
• Compression and machine level encryption
• All files are compressed and encrypted in a single step before uploaded using a resource
friendly algorithm that is super fast. If you download a file from the web, Zoolz will use on-
the-fly decompression and decryption to restore the file in its original format
• Grouping
• To save multiple server requests and upload, all small files are grouped and sent in one
batch
• For example, if you got 1000 small files (1 KB), instead of uploading each file (creating 1000
uploads and 1000+ requests) Zoolz will group them in a 1 MB batch and send only 1 file with
1 request, reducing the backup time from 1000 to 3 seconds, and everything is done on the
fly, with zero knowledge
• Multiple threads (Optional)
• The use can choose multiple thread to utilize the entire network’s bandwidth. This is optimal
for a large company to schedule backups outside business hours increasing the backup
speed to 4X

Restore On New Computers
Zoolz provide an easy way to migrate to a
new computers or to resume your backup
without having to restart from the
beginning
For example: You have 2 drives C:, D:.
A new Windows installation was installed
on the C drive. After installing Zoolz, you
can choose to resume, Zoolz will
automatically import your previous
settings and database and will resume
where it left off; all files on D will not be
uploaded to the cloud again

Global Deduplication:
Deduplication works on 3 levels;
• Machine,
• Company,
• Global.
Files are checked for duplication before they are processed and uploaded, the file will be compared
with a hash to make sure there is no reference before uploading
If the files are encrypted with custom encryption, the files will be checked, however, in most cases no
global reference will be found

Cold Storage Technology
• Cold Storage is a very low cost storage
service, it provide same features as any cloud
storage like instant upload, browsing, search,
previews for photos and raw images
• The only difference is that it takes around 3
hours for the first file to be restored then
everything will go instantly
• For example: If you upload 1 TB and you requested 1
file, it will take 3 hours for the file to be prepared.
However, if you restore 1000 files, the first file will take 3
hours, then everything will be recovered instantly
• During these 3 hours (Warming Period) you
can shut down your computer, and once its on
and Zoolz starts, it will restore the files without
intervention
Cold Storage = Instant Normal Storage + 3 Hours delay in restore time

Cold Storage Technology
• Cold Storage is suitable for storing huge amount of data for a centuries
• It supports all Zoolz features like Compression, Grouping, Encryption, backup
Internal drives, External drives, Mapped drives and Network drives
• Zoolz Cold Storage will never delete your data even if you disconnect your
drive, once its uploaded it will never be deleted unless you explicitly delete it.

Copy, Encrypt and Ship Service(TM)
• Use at anytime, not just initial seed: Just start the
service at anytime, Zoolz will copy and encrypt the
files, and once completed, Zoolz will resume backup
online.
• View all shipped files instantly on the web: All files
will automatically appear on the web while waiting for
processing and will become available as soon as they
are processed.
• Zero Knowledge processing: All files are encrypted
with your password on the external and processed
encrypted when they arrive.
• Zero Tampering Policy: Zoolz hashes the entire drive
before shipping and compares the hash upon arrival to
ensure the data is intact.
• Unlimited number of drives: You can send all your
data on a single drive or numerous drives; there are no
restrictions on size or number or drives that can be
sent.
Created to allow large amounts of data to bypass the
internet by shipping all files directly to our datacenters

Zoolz Photographers (RAW Support)
While designing Zoolz, we wanted to address
photographers' specific requirements for an
online backup service. In fact, we hired
professional photographers as consultants to
help us design Zoolz in order to meet those
needs.
• Zoolz generates photo previews of all photos
including RAW Photos
• Copy, Encrypt and Ship support
• Low Cost using Cold Storage
• Small and large photo previews are generated
for the users with no extra charge for easier
access. This feature is also supported on Cold
Storage
