SpaceTime

Day 7 of #slush2025 for me (with meetings and events). Looking forward to some rest at this point :) It’s been a good one this time. Finnish ecosystem continues to have nice gravity and intense action. @SpaceTimeeu had river boat mixers on two days. Lovely frolic in many events.

My interview about the EU Data Act, in force since Friday, in Ilta-Sanomat Digitoday. is.fi/digitoday/art-20000114… @SpaceTimeeu can store massive heaps of data and securely provide that to customers. Data Act opens up a more level playing field for small businesses to develop apps.

SpaceTime: Why it’s perfectly timed & super heated right now? Sovereign cloud, geopolitics, the fight against ransomware and cloud problems. SpaceTime engineers fortresses, urgently called for by the EU acts on AI, Data and cybersecurity forbes.com/sites/sindhyavall…

Today the European NIS2 cybersecurity directive is fully in force in Finland. Good day to write to you all a little bit about what we have been building lately. At SpaceTime.eu we do managed storage. In large scale for S3 objects and files. A good chunk of our business is security related. SpaceTime runs tens of petabytes of customer data from very secure certified data centers. The primary one having been built by Finnish defense forces, with EMP shielding. We offer immutable storage buckets where your data can’t be deleted by ransomware, malicious actors, or other system mishaps. Many customers backup their hyperscaler clouds with us. Integration to something like Azure is less than 60 seconds to get this rolling. We also customize workloads for customers, with a bit of CPU and GPU compute next to the storage. OT data from eg. factories, AI training data, analytics platforms etc are other common use cases. We can take on high data volumes: wan’t 50 petabytes today? Not a problem, it’s available. SpaceTime is very fast, with 11 nines data durability. Megaport connection available to transfer data beyond the public Internet. Where we really perform fabulously is in massive scale technical performance: it’s no problem at all for SpaceTime to instantly restore 300,000,000 objects from your storage. Where other systems choke and can’t do it, ours just opens the proverbial fire hydrant and serves it all fast as requested. NIS2 makes organizations accountable for their data security. Everyone needs to have their “house of data” in order. Hyperscaler clouds like MS, Google or AWS all have legal language in their terms that push responsibility of the data (and backups) to customers, not to them. We are happy to take that on and carry it. More than 5K customers are already using SpaceTime, and our growth makes me smile. One clear reason why customers choose us is our pricing: it’s just amount of data used per month, plus used bandwidth - an no other fees. No ingress, egress, API, data read / retrieval, operation, inter-region, metadata, restoration, minimum capacity, or compute etc fees. Pricing is super simple and clear with no surprises. And the price point is very competitive. We operate through resellers and partners. If this sounds like something your organization could sell?: be in touch! Especially today with NIS2 out in force this is interesting to any organization with heaps of data. Ping me to continue the discussion. And happy NIS2 day ya all - stay safe out there in cyberspace :)
