A Cloud That
Stays in Canada

Compute and storage on hardware we own. Virtual machines and S3-compatible storage in our Milton, Ontario facility — your data answers to PIPEDA, not the US CLOUD Act.

Virtual machines on hardware we own

Servers without buying servers. Our VMs run on the same infrastructure we monitor 5,000 ways every 30 seconds — in Milton, under Canadian jurisdiction. It all runs on Nexaplane by Nuaj, the same cloud platform we trust for our own operation.

Sized by an Engineer

Tell us what you run and we'll spec the VM to match — CPU, RAM, storage, network. No forcing your workload into preset tiers.

maxRAID-Backed Disks

Your VM lives on the same fast, dual-parity storage layer we trust with our own operation. Quick under load, safe when a drive fails.

Flat Monthly Pricing

No hourly meters, no variable compute charges, no egress fees. You know the cost before you power on.

Room to Grow

Grow a VM, add a VM, or graduate to bare metal or your own rack — same building, same team, no migration drama.

GPU Compute

Need acceleration? We offer GPU options for AI, rendering, and heavy parallel workloads — real GPUs in our Milton facility, at flat monthly pricing, without your data ever crossing the border.

Simple storage. Honest pricing.

Tired of trying to predict your AWS bill? Our S3-compatible storage runs on the same hardware we trust with our own operation — with pricing you can actually forecast.

S3-Compatible API

Works with AWS CLI, Veeam, rclone, Cyberduck, and every other tool that speaks S3. No proprietary lock-in — move your data freely.

No Egress Surprises

With hyperscalers, downloading your own data can cost more than storing it. Our pricing is straightforward: you know what you'll pay before you sign.

Canadian Data Sovereignty

Your data is stored in Milton, Ontario in a Canadian-owned facility, governed by PIPEDA — not subject to the US CLOUD Act. With privacy regulators now actively enforcing and government procurement favouring Canadian residency, where your data lives has become a board-level question.

Powered by maxRAID

Our storage runs on maxRAID by WildFire Storage — dual-parity protection with the write performance of RAID-10. We ran it on our own workloads first; your data is fast and safe.

Colocation racks and cloud infrastructure at Halton Data Center

Your racks and your cloud, under one roof

Most "hybrid cloud" means your hardware in one city, your cloud provider in another, and the public internet in between. Here, your colocated equipment and our cloud live in the same building, joined by a dedicated port — not a tunnel across somebody else's network.

  • Back up your racks to Canadian cloud storage without egress fees
  • Scale storage on demand without buying another shelf of drives
  • One facility, one team, one bill — no finger-pointing between vendors

Write performance vs. traditional RAID‑10
3.8×
Longer SSD lifespan
The drives for the same protection

maxRAID: faster writes, longer drive life

Traditional RAID-6 is safe but painfully slow on writes. RAID-10 is fast but wastes half your capacity. maxRAID gives you the speed of RAID-10 with the safety of dual-parity RAID — while extending SSD lifespan nearly 4×. We didn't adopt it because it's clever on paper; we adopted it after proving it in our own operation.

Your business applications, hosted here

Not everyone wants a VM and root access. If what you actually need is your accounting system available to the whole team without a server in the office closet, we host that too — on our own hardware in Milton, managed as much or as little as you want.

Accounting & ERP Hosting

QuickBooks, Sage, Spire, and ERP systems hosted with multi-user access. Your bookkeeper, your accountant, and your team all work in the same live company file — from anywhere.

Windows Remote Desktop

Your team signs in from anywhere and lands on a fast, familiar Windows desktop with their applications already there. The office computer, without the office.

Linux Servers

Debian, Ubuntu, or the distribution you prefer — for web stacks, databases, and the workloads your business runs on. Nginx, Apache, MySQL, MariaDB: we speak them fluently.

As Managed as You Want

Hand us the whole thing, have us set it up and step back, or run it yourself. There's no wrong answer — tell us where you want the line and we'll draw it there.

Cloud and storage questions we hear a lot

Is Canadian cloud storage more expensive than AWS or Azure?
The sticker price can look similar, but our pricing is flat and predictable — no egress fees for downloading your own data, no meters running in the background. Compare your actual monthly AWS bill, download costs included, against a flat quote from us.
Where is my data actually stored, and who can access it?
On our own hardware in Milton, Ontario, under Canadian jurisdiction and PIPEDA — not the US CLOUD Act. Nobody outside our engineering team touches your content, and we don't access it beyond what's needed to run the service.
Can I use tools like Veeam, rclone, or the AWS CLI with your storage?
Yes. Our S3-compatible storage works with any tool that speaks the S3 API, so your existing backup and sync scripts keep working without rewriting them.
Can I run a hybrid setup with my own colocated servers?
That's exactly what this cloud is built for. Your colocated racks get a dedicated port into the cloud. The traffic never touches the public internet, and there are no egress charges between the two.
