ClearSky Data’s global storage network simplifies the entire data lifecycle and delivers enterprise storage as a fully managed service.

Its storage is designed for business agility. ClearSky simplifies enterprise storage by providing an SLA-based managed service across the global network. The company's patent-pending Smart Tiered Caching continually categorizes data and places it in the right cache layer (hot, warm, cold) based on evolving usage requirements and customer policies. Customers simply scale as needed, using the ClearSky dashboard to add unlimited capacity with a few clicks.

All data can be moved across the ClearSky network to meet a variety of use cases including data center migration, load balancing, expansion into new regions, or disaster recovery. ClearSky has partnered with major public clouds to place hot and warm cache copies at the cloud edge. The result: customers get low-latency access to cloud instances, providing a new cost-effective option to run their most demanding workloads.

The total cost of ownership (TCO) of storing data using the ClearSky service is about 1/3 the cost of managing it in a company’s data center on physical storage arrays.

By leveraging the architecture and building redundancy into all cache layers and network paths, ClearSky is able to provide an enterprise-class service with guaranteed high availability. Industry-leading security technologies and best practices ensure that customer data is always protected and isolated from the moment it enters the ClearSky network.

Customers simply plug into the ClearSky service to get the storage they need, when and where they need it, with the security, scalability, and resilience that a business depends on.
