Reversibility
Objective
This document describes the reversibility policy for the Unified Data Platform product covering the OVHcloud Data Platform offer.
This policy aims to implement the general reversibility principles and our compliance with the SWIPO IAAS Code of Conduct for cloud providers.
List of features
The features of the product line fall into three categories:
- Core features for which we guarantee migration capacity.
- OVHcloud implementations that require adaptation to a new migration environment.
- Specific features that cannot be guaranteed for migration as they are related to the OVHcloud environment or involve custom developments.

List of architectures
OVHcloud Unified Data Platform service is based on open-source technologies such as Trino, Apache Iceberg, and Kubernetes. It is compatible with OVHcloud Public Cloud architectures.
Partner Services
The OVHcloud partners concerned are listed in the OVHcloud partners directory under the "Data center expansion and migration" keywords.
OVHcloud also has a dedicated service: OVHcloud Professional Services.
Costs and fees
Features described in the tables are available at no cost, unless otherwise specified and are freely usable.
OVHcloud uses pay-as-you-go pricing, with no egress fee. Billing is interrupted immediately when the service is canceled, allowing flexible cost control.
Data retention after service termination
Once the service is canceled, all data are irreversibly deleted. It is the client’s responsibility to carry out a full backup or migration before termination.
