Wasabi and Cloud Constellation Corporation to Deliver a New Generation of Space-Based Cloud Data Storage and Security Services
March 6, 2018
LOS ANGELES & BOSTON, March 6th, 2018 – Wasabi, the hot cloud storage company, and Cloud Constellation Corporation announced today they are collaborating to deliver a new generation of cloud data storage and security services. Based on Wasabi's high-performance cloud data storage and Cloud Constellation's SpaceBelt™ Data Security as a Service, the combined offering will enable enterprise customers to bypass the inherent cyber vulnerability of global terrestrial networks with a space-based global area network and data storage.
Created by cloud storage pioneers and Carbonite co-founders David Friend and Jeff Flowers, Wasabi is the hot cloud storage company that delivers the industry’s fastest, lowest-cost, reliable cloud storage.
- Wasabi is built to be 100 percent AWS S3 bit-compatible. However, there are no complex storage tiers; Wasabi costs a flat $.0039/GB/Month with a 1TB minimum usage.
- Wasabi also offers immutable buckets, which means that data written to those buckets cannot be erased or altered, protecting users from common causes of data loss like accidental deletions, application software bugs, hackers and malware.
SpaceBelt is a patented, scalable, service that uses a constellation of 12 satellites in low earth orbit (LEO).
- The constellation of satellites is networked with a laser photonic ring that is redundant and self-healing for high availability.
- The SpaceBelt network communicates with secure access points located at Wasabi data centers and enterprise customer sites via connectivity with geosynchronous satellites (GEO).
David Friend, CEO of Wasabi, said: “We’re very excited to be working jointly on a very cool and important initiative like SpaceBelt. Cloud Constellation is pioneering a new frontier of data security, and we’re honored that they have chosen Wasabi as a strategic partner for their global area network and data storage.”
Dennis R. Gatens, vice president of SpaceBelt channel management and marketing, said: “A data breach can have a devastating impact on the state of a business that no insurance policy can undo. Our combined offering will enable customers to take advantage of Wasabi's high-performance, low-cost data storage. Where the highest level of cybersecurity risk mitigation is required, SpaceBelt provides the security necessary to protect customers’ highly valuable data assets.”
The combined offering of Wasabi and SpaceBelt services will result in a portfolio of cloud data storage and security services that CIOs and CISOs will incorporate into their cybersecurity strategies to realize an unprecedented level of data security risk mitigation.
