The cloud-based service market is a growing sector that is characterized by numerous providers and stiff competition. Calligo has distinguished itself from the beginning. Upon opening, the company immediately adopted SolidFire storage as the foundation for its unique CloudCore all-flash infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Customers' desire for guaranteed performance and customized services drove Calligo's 300% year-over-year revenue growth.
Today, a new challenge on the corporate horizon is spurring fresh growth at Calligo. By 2018, companies operating in the European Union must comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or risk hefty fines. Calligo, whose security muscle includes ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications, can enable North American companies to meet the coming EU GDPR requirements. Calligo is expanding to meet the rising demand in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom. At the heart of its ability to scale rapidly, with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS), is NetApp SolidFire.
The NetApp SolidFire platform gives us ridiculous amounts of power in terms of throughput, which is great, but the secret of our success is the QoS that SolidFire delivers.

“In our latest expansion, we'll offer the U.S. market the ability to gain EU compliance for data protection—the tough new GDPR law that's coming into effect,” says Julian Box, CEO of Calligo. “NetApp SolidFire remains at the heart of everything we build—a modular, easy-to-build environment that supports our four pillars of focus: data privacy, application performance guarantees, optimized client environments, and personalized support.”
