📄 Editorial Review

CloudFerro is a European cloud services provider headquartered in Warsaw, Poland, established in 2015 and built around the idea of sovereign, open-source cloud infrastructure for specialized industries. Rather than classic shared web hosting, they concentrate on public and private cloud, big-data processing, AI computing and massive Earth Observation (EO) data repositories. Their platforms are heavily used by the European space sector, climate research institutions and scientific projects that need petabyte-scale storage and scalable compute close to satellite data.

They position themselves as a fully European company: European ownership, European legal jurisdiction, and data centers located only in EU countries. Operations are run under ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 standards and they highlight participation in European digital sovereignty initiatives. CloudFerro is a prime contractor for major institutions such as ESA, ECMWF, EUMETSAT and DLR, and operates several well-known EO platforms and data lakes (for example Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem, CREODIAS, CODE-DE, WEkEO, EO-Lab and others) on top of their cloud.

CREODIAS is a specialized cloud platform for Earth Observation (EO) data and compute, operated by CloudFerro S.A. (Warsaw, Poland).

Their cloud portfolio is structured around four public OpenStack-based regions: WAW3-1, WAW3-2 and WAW4-1 in Poland, and FRA1-2 in Germany. On top of these regions they offer:

• Public cloud compute – virtual machines (VMs) with full root access, including general-purpose, high-memory and disk-optimized flavours, plus Spot Virtual Machines for lower-priority workloads, and Dedicated Solutions (DS) where a VM occupies the entire physical server. GPU-equipped VMs and bare-metal-class configurations are available for AI and HPC use cases.
• Kubernetes as a Service – managed Kubernetes clusters tightly integrated with the EO data repositories, aimed at developers and data scientists who want containerized workflows without maintaining the control plane themselves.
• Storage services – object storage (S3-compatible), block volumes, ephemeral storage and VM image storage, including backup-oriented services and large-scale data repositories for EO workloads.
• Network and access services – load balancing, firewall, internet connectivity and service management components such as managed identity (Keycloak), API access and dedicated management panels.
• Private cloud and white-label public clouds – tailored OpenStack-based environments deployed in customer-chosen locations across Europe, including "white label" clouds that integrators or institutions can brand as their own.
• EO data and tools – a central part of the offer is access to over 90 PB of Earth Observation data (Sentinel missions and other Copernicus data), together with catalogues, data acquisition and dissemination services, processing tools and domain-specific platforms.
• AI solutions – including AI computing services and a managed generative-AI platform called Sherlock (with OpenAI-compatible endpoints), as well as domain-specific AI/ML solutions that exploit EO archives.

CloudFerro strongly emphasizes technical transparency and independence: their platforms are built on OpenStack, Ceph, Kubernetes, Prometheus/Grafana and ELK, with servers designed and assembled in-house. They present this combination of open source, in-house hardware and fully European data residency as an alternative to hyperscalers for organizations that need both performance and regulatory control. The service is clearly aimed at technically adept users, institutions and enterprises rather than non-technical website owners.
The website is available in English and Polish, and documentation, support and marketing materials are primarily in English, reflecting their pan-European target audience.
