Resilient Data Infrastructure for the Public Sector
Digital Sovereignty
True resilience begins at the data layer
We make Ceph enterprise-ready for the public sector: hardware-independent, fully auditable, and without vendor lock-in.
Strategic Autonomy: Operational Freedom over Dependence
Digital sovereignty cannot be achieved through the user interface alone. Merely replacing software applications only shifts technological dependencies deeper into the stack. True autonomy must be built from the ground up, starting fundamentally with complete control over the storage layer.
Ceph has established itself as the default standard: as the core component of the Sovereign Cloud Stack (SCS) and the reference architecture for the German Federal Administration Cloud (DVC), it provides the vendor-independent foundation for a future-proof IT infrastructure.
Tailored Infrastructure: The Core Pillars for Sovereign Public Sector Data
Public-sector storage must combine scalability with sovereignty, auditability, and long lifecycle control for essential digital services.
Ransomware Resilience
Immutable recovery points and protected backup architectures help public-sector teams restore essential services after ransomware incidents.
AI-Readiness
High-performance NVMe architectures to deliver the required throughput for automated administrative workflows and AI compute workloads.
Certified Compliance
Supports storage architectures aligned with strict national baselines and frameworks such as BSI IT-Grundschutz, KRITIS, NIS 2, and DORA.
Sustainability (Green IT)
Software-Defined Storage (SDS) maximizes hardware resource utilization and extends physical lifecycle durability beyond 7 years.
Technological Control: CES & Ceph Upstream
CLYSO helps public-sector teams reduce operational risk across architecture design, deployment, migration, lifecycle management, and 24/7 operations.
CES (CLYSO Enterprise Storage)
A fully validated distribution tailored for public authorities that translates Ceph technology into mission-critical operations. We share operational responsibility across design, performance, and 24/7 enterprise support.
Strategic Upstream Governance
As an active member of the Ceph Foundation Board, we steer the global roadmap to ensure that public sector requirements like long-term stability and auditability are integrated directly into the core project.
Hardened Infrastructure
Each CES release is validated and hardened for production use, with enterprise support for stability, updates, and vulnerability handling.
Platform Independence
CES helps reduce platform dependency and supports planned transitions from VMware-based environments toward OpenStack or Kubernetes architectures.
Typical Use Cases
Typical public-sector workloads include e-files, citizen portals, geodata platforms, evidence storage, archive repositories, and sovereign cloud services.
E-Government
S3-compliant object storage for digital records and compliant citizen portals.
Smart City & Research
High-performance NVMe platforms handling spatial data analytics and AI-driven telemetry.
Law Enforcement
Highly scalable storage designed for massive ingestion of forensic video and evidentiary assets.
Compliant Archiving
Long-term archive platforms can combine retention policies, immutability controls, and auditable storage for public records.
Cyber Resilience
Protected recovery copies and tested restore processes help keep essential public services available after cyber incidents.
