Cithorum Cloud

A 1 PB Jam cloud.
Up to 8× proven data plane.

Cithorum operates a 1 PB managed-cloud pod in India for regulated private enterprise and government workloads. Jam shifts what the data centre can do: fewer bytes on media and WAN, seconds restore, $0 egress, and a Cloud KG audit layer on the same substrate.

01/Platform economicsLive

The storage bill moves first.

Jam changes the cost base underneath cloud storage: fewer bytes, fewer drives, lower facility draw, no restore penalty, and a KG trail that can prove who did what.

Hot restore

Seconds to restore, not cold-tier hours.

Customer control

Private deployment, in-India residency, customer keys, and audit trails.

Public-sector route

Cithorum India, Udyam-MSE pathway, and a tender response toolkit in the served resource library.

02/Savings modelPublic scenario

Model managed-storage savings by workload.

The approved public benchmark is USD $5/TB-month for qualified managed-storage scenarios. Cithorum uses AWS S3 Standard as a list-rate reference and quotes production terms after the customer-data benchmark by workload, SLA, region, deployment mode, and service scope.

Illustrative model only. AWS S3 Standard is used as a public list-rate reference; final pricing depends on benchmarked workload, SLA, region, deployment mode, and service scope.

AWS S3 Standard is a list-rate reference. Comparisons exclude request, retrieval, transfer, tax, committed-discount, SLA, and region-specific scope differences. Final pricing depends on the benchmarked workload and deployment model.

03/Services

One substrate, six cloud services.

The first purchase motion is storage. Jam is built into every byte written, and Cloud KG tracks the operating facts customers need to trust the platform.

Object storage

S3-compatible, drop-in, Jam-compressed.

Block & file

For compute, databases, and traditional workloads.

Backup & archive

Cold economics with hot restore behavior.

AI / ML

Private GPU optional; data stays inside the chosen deployment boundary.

Cloud KG

Named principals, reads, writes, capacity events, and restore proofs.

Dedicated deployment

Private or sovereign-region posture for regulated and government buyers.

04/Cloud Knowledge GraphInternal alpha

The cloud has a graph built in.

Cithorum's Data-Centre Ops KG links customers, workloads, buckets, nodes, capacity, power, billing, and restore events. It is being productised from the live pod so the cloud becomes a provable operating log, not just a storage bill.

01Jam data plane

Writes fewer bytes to CPU + NVMe storage and keeps decode pinned to the drive ceiling.

02Telemetry events

Compression ratio, bucket, customer, node, drive, restore, and power events stay payload-free.

03Ops KG

Events become named facts with provenance, lineage, and permission boundaries.

04Buyer answers

Billing, audit, residency, restore proof, capacity planning, and compliance review become queryable.

05/Buyers and procurement

Built for procurement scrutiny.

The page keeps commercial detail visible for private enterprise, public-sector, healthcare, and banking buyers without turning the front door into a tender document.

ComplianceTelemetry-only architecture, customer-controlled data, audit trail.

Jam reads CPU, thermal, power, and storage-throughput signal; it does not need application payload. Customer data stays in customer buckets, encrypted in transit and at rest, with hash-verified restore.

The operating posture is SOC 2 operationally compliant and mapped to ISO 27001, RBI, PCI-DSS, HIPAA-aligned patterns, CERT-In logging, and DPDP Act 2023 residency requirements.

TendersCithorum India exists for tender contracting and public-sector procurement.

Cithorum India is structured for public-sector and enterprise tenders, with an Udyam-MSE registration pathway, EMD exemption logic once eligible, and a reusable tender response toolkit in the served resource library.

The public tender surface is preserved at /sovereign-cloud/tenders, and the Canada / ITB proof route is available at /canada.
