Requires distributed, self-healing architecture (Ceph's replication/erasure coding) to eliminate Single Points of Failure (SPoFs). This ensures critical operational systems (e.g., EMS/DMS) remain available during hardware failures or non-disruptive maintenance.

Sovereign Storage Solutions for the Energy Sector
Grid reliability begins with data sovereignty
The energy transition turns data into a critical resource. Smart grids and IoT generate massive data volumes, while NIS-2 and KRITIS regulations sharply raise security standards. Off-the-shelf storage is no longer enough.
CLYSO Enterprise Storage (CES), powered by Ceph, unifies Block, File, and Object storage in a single platform. Your benefit: Maximum data sovereignty in your own data center – completely free from vendor lock-ins or dependency on hyperscalers.
What the energy market demands from a storage solution.
Operating critical infrastructure leaves no room for compromise. We have identified the core pain points:
Unified, Linear Scalability for Sector Coupling
The system must handle concurrent, rapid growth of Object storage (e.g., millions of IoT/Smart Meter readings), Block storage (e.g., virtualized critical IT systems), and File storage (e.g., engineering drawings) on a single platform to manage data from transforming sectors (power, heat, mobility).
Mandated KRITIS/NIS-2 Data Integrity
WORM (Write Once, Read Many) functionality and immutable retention policies must be enforced at the storage layer. This provides the auditable proof required by the KRITIS Umbrella Law and NIS-2 for sensitive infrastructure data.
OT meets IT
SCADA systems require high-performance, low-latency Block access. The platform must integrate this OT data stream seamlessly with large S3 Object pools for centralized, real-time analytics used in modern grid management.
TCO & Sovereignty
Measurement and planning data require retention periods that often exceed 30 years. Using hardware-independent, open-source technology eliminates vendor lock-in and the unpredictable costs associated with proprietary licence renewals over these extended lifecycles.
CES & Ceph: The answer to the complexity of the energy transition.
CLYSO provides the technological foundation to bridge the gap between traditional IT and modern operational technology (OT).
Full Data Sovereignty:
We deploy solutions directly within your perimeter. You retain complete physical and logical control over your data – fully compliant with the Sovereign Cloud Stack (SCS).
Hardware Independence
CES (powered by Ceph) runs on standard x86 servers. This eliminates hardware lock-in and allows you to integrate existing infrastructure efficiently or scale flexibly.
Native Multi-Protocol Support
Use a single cluster for your entire environment. S3 interfaces for IoT data streams, block storage for high-performance VMs, and file storage for legacy systems.
Security by Design
With features like erasure coding, multi-site replication, and WORM protection, we safeguard your data against system failures and ransomware attacks.
Proven Solutions: CES in Action for Energy Operators
From grid transmission to compliance – how CES delivers in practice:
Centralized Grid Monitoring & Predictive Maintenance
Utilize CES Object Storage (S3) to aggregate massive, decentralized data streams from TSOs and DSOs (e.g., millions of Smart Meter intervals) into a secure, private data center. This consolidated data pool is the technical foundation for running sophisticated predictive maintenance algorithms.
Technical Enforcement of KRITIS/NIS-2 Mandates
Implement the required data retention architecture using WORM and Erasure Coding within the CES cluster. This ensures that essential regulatory data (e.g., audit logs, measurement archives) meets the legally mandated immutability and availability targets.
Sustainable TCO for Long-Term Archiving
Deploy Ceph's hardware-agnostic design and high-efficiency Erasure Coding for archive tiers. This enables utilities to store decades of required measurement and compliance data cost-effectively by utilizing standard hardware and avoiding proprietary license escalation.
Real-Time Data Plane for Digital Twin Simulation
Provide consistently low-latency Block storage for high-IOPS applications like real-time simulation, modeling, and Digital Twin environments. The Unified Storage approach ensures that simulation inputs and outputs reside on the same performant platform.
