Canadian Cloud
Infrastructure
Building the cloud infrastructure we wish we had.
Open Source Powered. Canadian Hosted.
Why We Exist
Every Canadian who stores data in the cloud sends it to the US. AWS, Google Cloud, Azure — they all route through American data centers, subject to American laws and American surveillance.
We started as a Django development shop, building open source tools like Django Spellbook and running federated social platforms. But we kept hitting the same wall: there's no good Canadian-hosted alternative to S3.
So we're building one. Storm Cellar is S3-compatible object storage hosted entirely in Canada, powered by the open source Garage engine. And Storm Drive is our self-hostable cloud platform that puts you in control of your own data.
What We're Building
Storm Cellar
S3-Compatible Object Storage
Drop-in replacement for AWS S3, Backblaze B2, or Wasabi. Powered by Garage's distributed storage engine with multi-zone replication across Canadian data centers. Coming soon.
Storm Drive
Self-Hostable Cloud Platform
Cloud storage you actually own. Self-host for free or let us manage it. No per-seat fees, no data mining. Built with Django and our own open source tools.
Federated Platforms
Social Ontario & NorthTube
We run two federated social platforms — a Mastodon instance and a PeerTube instance — both hosted in Canada. Real communities, no algorithms, no ads.
Open Source Tools
Django Spellbook & More
We build and maintain Django packages with 100k+ downloads. We open source what we can and use our own tools in production.
