Interoute Launches Cloud-Based Storage Service

Cloud
Interoute has rolled out a cloud-based storage service based on Cloudian’s HyperStore object storage technology. Offered as part of the Interoute Virtual Data Centre Cloud Platform, it provides customers with highly durable cloud-based storage for unstructured data, backups and archives.

Interoute is offering multiple petabytes of capacity, with further growth planned in accordance with customer demand. The Cloudian deployment is available across the entire Interoute platform with 17 Virtual Data Centre zones globally. Customers have the option to use resilient in-country deployments in Switzerland and Germany.

The geo-location flexibility offered by the Cloudian solution, in combination with the Interoute Enterprise Digital Platform, gives Interoute customers control over data locality and assured performance, enabling them to build regulatory-compliant storage solutions in different territories.

“With GDPR looming large in 2018, as well as the rapid adoption of VDC and SaaS platforms, our customers are revisiting the legacy world of physical backup and archiving and demanding a simple, controlled, auditable cloud service,” explained Mark Lewis, EVP Products and Development at Interoute. “So, we’ve created an easily accessed and integrated, cost-effective object storage service to support their digital transformation.”

Jon Toor, chief marketing officer at Cloudian, commented, “With Cloudian, Interoute is offering its customers choice in limitlessly scalable and cost effective storage, on a foundation that is proven in some of the world’s largest unstructured data stores.”
