Cloud storage partnership targets Ukrainian and Polish organisations

GigaCloud, a Ukrainian cloud service provider, and Cubbit, described as the first geo-distributed cloud storage enabler, announced a new partnership designed to equip Ukrainian and Polish organisations with fully sovereign, resilient, and cost-effective cloud storage services.

Founded in 2016, GigaCloud says it serves over 1,500 companies and 20 million users and is the largest partner of the Ukrainian public sector in digital transformation — providing end-to-end services spanning consulting, ready-to-use industry-specific solutions, and additional tools for cybersecurity.

Today, GigaCloud says it manages private, public, hybrid, and multicloud environments, supported by its own data centres as well as by an extensive network of partner-operated sites.

As the company explains, organisations in Ukraine and Poland face an increasingly demanding risk landscape, where ransomware and cyberattacks remain a persistent threat. Also, armed conflicts make data centre facilities extremely susceptible to physical disruptions.

At the same time, companies must comply with an ever-stricter legislative framework, while keeping sensitive and strategic data under their direct control, operated within defined geographic boundaries. For enterprises, government institutions, and critical infrastructure operators, storage that is resilient, sovereign, and distributed across multiple trusted cross-country sites has moved from a preference to a requirement.

Under this partnership, GigaCloud says it will deploy DS3 Composer — Cubbit’s software-defined object storage — across its five data centres spanning three availability zones in Ukraine (Kyiv, Lviv) and Poland (Warsaw).

Cubbit's technology encrypts, fragments and distributes data across multiple sites. Organisations can define precisely where their data resides — within Ukraine only, across both Ukraine and Poland, or in Poland alone — and remain compliant with GDPR and regional regulations.

Each customer benefits from complete tenant isolation, with a dedicated interface and S3-compatible API endpoint providing full control over spaces, access rights, projects, configurations, metrics, reports, and billing. A single intuitive interface unifies control across environments and enables multiple flexible service tiers to be activated simultaneously. Key use cases include immutable backup, disaster recovery, long-term archiving, and management of unstructured data at scale.

GigaCloud says it will target mid-sized and enterprise customers across the public sector – industries where data sovereignty, resilience and the ability to recover rapidly from disruption with clear RTO (recovery time objective) and RPO (recovery point objective) are operational imperatives.

Cubbit will support GigaCloud with close technical and commercial cooperation, including training, sales support, and joint go-to-market initiatives — while ensuring high SLA standards, technical support, and service quality.
