Story of Safe Swiss Cloud
Safe Swiss Cloud’s journey began in 2012, in a quest to find more efficient ways to manage IT Infrastructure. This led to its first cloud offering in 2013.
In 2015, the cloud offering was extended to multiple data centers along with a massive investment in hardware to increase capacity. Also in 2015, we got our first ISO 27001 certification.
Since 2017, Safe Swiss Cloud has added many new cloud computing platforms to its offerings, including Kubernetes & Openshift, Openstack and VMware/vCloud. In parallel, a significant investment has been made to expand redundant, clustered SSD storage capacity.
As of October 2019, all of Safe Swiss Cloud’s platforms are hosted in its own highly secure data centres in Switzerland. This allows Safe Swiss Cloud to provide a streamlined vertically integrated package consisting of physical security for data centers, hardware platforms, cloud platforms and support covered by the Statement of Applicability (SoA) of its ISO 27001 certification.
