Calligo today announces the availability of an extended portfolio of data services, evolving its offering from privacy-conscious cloud service provision to data optimization and privacy services.

In 2012, Calligo launched the world’s first public cloud platform with data privacy at its heart and was the first to offer data residency guarantees. It has since extended its cloud coverage across multiple jurisdictions around the world, created a dedicated data privacy professional services team and built a global customer base of cloud infrastructure customers. 

Today, Calligo completes the next stage in its evolution. Based on its belief that data privacy is the starting point to every data interaction, it now offers a unique collection of innovative, cloud-based services that optimize the entire data journey, from capture and storage to analysis, monetization and archival – with data privacy embedded at every step. 

“‘Data optimization’ has until now been synonymous with realizing the full value of your data. This remains the case, but with a vital extension,” said Julian Box, Founder and CEO of Calligo. “Data privacy has grown in importance so markedly in the last 24 months that we anticipate the industry understanding of the term ‘optimization’ to very soon also incorporate privacy assurance. For your data to be considered optimized, it will not only have to be secure, accessible, useful and revenue-generating – for which modern cloud infrastructure, data analytics and AI are essential – it will also have to adhere with relevant privacy laws. This is the direction that we and industry analysts see the business world rapidly moving in, and we are the first to offer a complete portfolio of services to match.” 

Calligo now offers public & hybrid cloud and innovative cloud-based data analytics, artificial intelligence and archival & erasure services, all supported by ‘privacy-first’ data management consultancy and specific assistance with national, international and industry-specific data protection obligations. 

“Businesses worldwide are beginning to realise that data privacy is about more than where and how your data is stored,” concluded Box. “Regulations such as GDPR and the upcoming ePrivacy Directive have brought into focus the fact that privacy has to be considered with every interaction with data. As such, every stage of the wider data journey is starting to be scrutinised for its impact on privacy adherence. Our innovative tools and services are ideally placed to support any business concerned with the data privacy ramifications of how they capture, store, analyse, monetize or archive their data.” 

Calligo is holding a series of events in each of its global locations where these new services are being launched, the first of which are in Luxembourg (9th May) and Jersey (26th June). https://calligo.cloud/events/ to find out more and register.
