A Swiss cloud partner with a strong ethos.
Unlimited storage — on Swiss infrastructure. stepping stone offers S3-compatible object storage based on Ceph: triple-redundant, encrypted and infinitely scalable. Ideal for backups, archives and cloud-native applications.
S3 Object Storage from stepping stone offers scalable, secure storage for large volumes of data — based on Ceph and fully compatible with the S3 API. Your existing tools and applications will work without any modification.
The storage architecture is tiered: Tier 1 (NVMe SSD) for IOPS-optimised access, Tier 2 (SATA SSD) for applications with high-speed requirements, and Tier 3 (SATA HDD) as mass storage for backups and archives. All data is stored with triple redundancy, encrypted — both at rest and in transit — and checked for integrity using checksums during every read operation. Storage capacity scales with your needs: you pay for what you use. stepping stone operates the object storage entirely on Swiss infrastructure — your data remains in Switzerland.
Developers, IT teams and businesses in Switzerland that require scalable storage for large volumes of data — with no volume restrictions and without having to transfer data to US cloud providers.
Typical use cases: Backup storage in combination with Kopia for encrypted, immutable backups; long-term archiving of documents, logs and regulatory data; storage for cloud-native applications with S3 API integration; media storage for large image, video and audio files.
