Things are heating up…
Even though the thermometer is reading hot hot hot, at F12, we’re keeping our cool. We’re focusing our attention on sovereign cloud technology as a key way to simplify compliance, reduce jurisdictional exposure, and improve cloud performance for our clients.
Recent developments in international law mean data residency no longer provides data sovereignty. Crazy but true (check out our whitepaper below).
What makes our sovereign cloud so hot? It’s 100% Canadian-owned and operated, meaning if you’re an F12 sovereign cloud client, all of your data and metadata remain on “sovereign” soil—in our case, Canada. Foreign entities cannot access it, nor is it subject to foreign laws. It can’t be transferred across borders and remains in one jurisdiction.
We’re pretty passionate about the possibilities of cloud sovereignty, and could chat about it all day—that’s why this newsletter is chock full of info on the topic, including a complimentary whitepaper available to download and an explainer video with our CTO Calvin Engen to answer all your cloud data questions. (But don’t worry, we’ve still got your monthly roundup of the latest tech news from across the country and around the globe.)
Get out of the heat—it’s nice and cool in the cloud.
