PROVIDENCE, R.I., June 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Alpha 3 Cloud®, a high-performance cloud service provider, today announced that it has acquired the USA Cloud Operations and Infrastructure Assets of CloudSigma a premier cloud services provider headquartered in Zug Switzerland.  The USA Cloud operations that were acquired are located in Northern VA, and Silicon Valley.

Alpha 3 Cloud® becomes the first PRSP member to offer the Confidential Computing Cloud delivered as a service.

"Up until now customers could protect their data at rest and data in-motion, but not their data in-use.. they can now."

As organizations increasingly seek to utilize a public cloud for emerging blockchain, machine learning/AI, and multi-party compute workloads public cloud hosting concerns continue to grow, notably over data privacy cost predictability, vendor lock-in, regulatory compliance, network performance and lack of control over sensitive data. Enterprises and public sector organizations are looking for cloud services that use Secure Enclave Technology and Infrastructure to assure data privacy and security by default.

Designed to address these challenges, Alpha 3 Cloud's Confidential Computing Cloud and Infrastructure solutions complement on-premises HPE hardware deployments to enable seamless hybrid cloud capabilities and secure, compliant data operations. Built exclusively on HPE Gen10+ hardware, Alpha 3 Cloud®'s enterprise-grade Confidential Computing Cloud, is designed to support sensitive data and workloads that require superior performance, predictability, compliance, and control. Alpha 3 Cloud® and HPE bring to market a suite of hybrid cloud solutions as a service, enabled by HPE GreenLake.

"With the intense focus on data privacy and security, how an organization addresses the many challenges of security, high performance and compliance – on-premises, in the cloud and at the edge – has become critical to their success," said Xavier Poisson Gouyou Beauchamps, Vice President, Service Providers and Cloud28+, Hewlett Packard Enterprise. "Alpha 3 Cloud® is an asset to the HPE PRSP program bringing comprehensive Confidential Computing solutions and  industry leading Secure Enclave Cloud Services to the ecosystem of offerings for customers."

"Customers can now leverage the economics of the cloud for applications and workloads that contain highly sensitive data. Up until now customers could protect their data at rest and data in-motion, but not their data in-use.  Nor could they share data outside their organization to accelerate the value of Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence and Federated Learning.  They can now," said Ron Sacks, CEO at Alpha 3 Cloud®. "We look forward to partnering with customers to provide them with cloud-based Confidential Computing solutions that will protect their most sensitive data."
