This secure storage solution will be integrated with the web-based SWEA (Swedish Earth data Access) platform, developed by Spacemetric on behalf of the Swedish National Space Board. The platform is part of the existing EU earth observation program Copernicus managed by the European Space Agency (ESA). The data is collected and used to support environmental and humanitarian research. The ESA\u2019s archive of images is available to scientists and businesses across the world via the cloud. The archive, hosted by Interoute\u2019s private cloud network, is shared widely – from governments to entrepreneurs looking for ways to turn the data into business opportunities. SWEA can now ensure the availability of data with specific relevance to Swedish users.<\/p>\n

Interoute Virtual Data Centre zone in Stockholm<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>launched 6 months ago and is one of 17 global zones that make up Interoute private networked cloud.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe chose Interoute as they could offer an efficient hybrid solution combining physical storage with the Interoute Virtual Data Centre in Stockholm. As a result, we are guaranteed secure storage of local data as well as superior access due to low latency. It also means that the development process is more agile, making it possible to quickly and easily scale our efforts up or down depending on demand\u201d, said Mikael Stern, CEO at Spacemetric.<\/p>\n

Matthew Finnie, Interoute CTO, commented: \u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to be selected by Spacemetric for this exciting project supporting the EU earth observation program for environmental and humanitarian research. Interoute was the first global cloud provider to launch a zone in the Nordic region that offers both public and private cloud on one platform. And our Stockholm cloud zone is one of 17 global zones that make up our private networked cloud. This new project is validation that the \u2018local presence, global reach\u2019 approach to cloud is key to meeting the needs of the market in Europe\u201d<\/p>\n
