CloudCore

CloudCore

MANAGED CLOUD SERVICES

CloudCore is one of the most innovative, secure and high-performance public cloud platforms available. Migrating to CloudCore gives your organization the power to accelerate its data journey by offering access to Calligo’s wider data services.

INTRODUCTION

Calligo’s CloudCore platform is a highly secure and innovative public cloud platform that offers data privacy and sovereignty at its core. It is twice as fast as AWS and Google for machine learning workloads and is certified SOC 2 type 2. CloudCore offers scalability, availability, security, ease of management, innovation, and cost efficiency, while also restricting data movement outside nominated territories.

Our global data centre network spans six jurisdictions across nine locations, making it an ideal solution for those with local data residency requirements. Additionally, we offer security and compliance accreditations to ensure compliance with international standards in security, availability, and quality management. It is a suitable option for those looking for a multi, or hybrid cloud strategy alongside Microsoft Azure and other cloud providers including VMWare.


An award-winning and forward-thinking, managed, public cloud platform

  • Security & Compliance

    01

    Calligo is certified compliant with international standards in security, availability and quality management, and is aligned with standards for processing personal data.

    We also maintain SOC 2 type 2 continuous service accreditations that allow us to serve specific local markets, including a history of being annually accepted onto the UK Government’s G-Cloud procurement framework, compliance with Cyber Essentials, a UK government security standard, and a longstanding accreditation with the Luxembourg financial services regulator, the CSSF, as a Professionel du Secteur Financier (PSF).

  • Global Coverage & Local Data Residency

    02

    CloudCore has a global data centre network that covers 9 locations in 6 different jurisdictions. The selection of these jurisdictions is based on supporting clients’ data privacy, resilience, regulatory and latency requirements. CloudCore’s regions are not served locally by major cloud service providers, making it an ideal solution for those who require local data residency, especially as part of a hybrid strategy alongside Microsoft Azure and other providers.

  • Backup & Disaster Recovery Services

    03

    Our cloud backup solution, built on CloudCore, offers automatic and scalable data backup to any data centre in their global network. They have simple pricing models and expert data restoration specialists, and their service supports industry regulatory requirements and data privacy obligations. The backup solution can be deployed alongside CloudCore or any third-party cloud or on-premise resources, with the cost of invocation resources included in monthly fees. Clients can set their own recovery point and time objectives, and retention and purging rules, to ensure compliance with industry regulations or internal policies.

Why our clients choose CloudCore

  • Data Residency & Privacy

    CloudCore is available in many jurisdictions that the rest of the cloud market cannot serve, and restricts the movement of data – including copies – outside nominated territories.

  • Availability

    Built across nine geographically-dispersed locations in six different jurisdictions, each with high-availability connectivity and independently classified as a minimum of Tier III (99.5% uptime).

  • Scalability

    Clients can add or remove compute power and storage, provision virtual machines, or even introduce new data centres and regions to their environments as required, enabling unrivaled scalability and flexibility.

  • Performance

    CloudCore is one of the highest performing public clouds on the market due to its innovative design, flexibility, and “noisy neighbour” mitigation.

  • SLAs

    In addition to CloudCore being best in class in performance and availability, we also offer high-level SLAs across all aspects of service provision, including financially-backed SLAs for uptime.

  • Security

    CloudCore’s design follows a security-first, “defence in depth” philosophy, and uses a portfolio of constantly-reviewed best-of-breed technologies to maintain it, while also placing rigorous requirements on its data centre partners.

  • Ease of Management

    Our self-service cloud management platform simplifies cloud administration, including deploying virtual machines with a single click, or firewalls from templates.

  • Innovation

    One of the most advanced public cloud platforms available. The strong relationships we have with our vendors has led to an industry reputation as an early adopter, if not first to market, with new technologies.

  • Cost Efficiency

    CloudCore is offered on a consumption-based Virtual Data Centre model, not a per-VM basis. This ensures you pay only for the precise resources you require and not for any excess, unused resources that would be provisioned in a per-VM model.
