For immediate release
Halifax, NS – June 5, 2015 – Cloud-A Computing Inc. a leading Canadian OpenStack Public Cloud provider, and Baystream, a Montreal based, cloud systems integrator firm, announced today a strategic partnership that will see Baystream sell and implement cloud storage-as-a-service systems based on CTERA Networks technology married to Baystream’ s authentication and content management Systems on Cloud-A’s public cloud infrastructure.
The partnership will provide Canadian enterprises who are struggling with data management and data security challenges, with a Canadian owned and Canadian operated solution backed by Cloud-A’s enterprise grade compute and redundant Bulk Storage products. Baystream has already begun onboarding clients onto the new platform and have achieved phenomenal performance results.
Cloud-A is exactly what we have been looking for; we needed a Canadian owned and operated, high quality IAAS provider, delivering the kind of scalability, redundancy and SLA’s that people see in the US, and backed by Tier-3 Certified Platform. This we found in Cloud-A. We are very pleased with the results in terms of performance and also the support that Cloud-A offers its customers.

For Cloud-A, this partnership provides users with an end to end solution for their cloud storage needs.
Our Bulk Storage is a phenomenal product that has always been sought after in the Canadian market for its ability to scale and its reliability, but it is very much a raw material that requires development work, third party software, integration services and consulting for it to be an end-to-end solution for many customers. With their extensive industry experience and in-house engineering talent, Baystream fills these gaps by providing our existing and prospective customers with a truly enterprise grade, Canadian cloud storage solution.
Geoff Sullivan / Director of Business Development, Cloud-A
The enterprise cloud market is in explosive growth by all estimates. This growth was initially driven by the realization that the Cloud can deliver significant cost savings without the security risks, but lately companies are realizing that Cloud computing is also an important enabler for innovation. Cloud-A and Baystream are capitalizing on each other’s strengths to deliver the kind of systems that companies are looking for to effectively use the Cloud.

With the massive amount of growth in unstructured data Canadian organizations are seeing as a result of mega trends like Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine to Machine communications (M2M,) a reliable, redundant and scalable storage medium is required to handle it. Object storage is the perfect solution for many storage applications for unstructured data.
