Cloudspace is a Canadian cloud infrastructure company. We build and operate scalable VPS, private cloud, and AI-ready compute from our Edmonton, Alberta data centre. Our team has been running Canadian hosting infrastructure since 2002.
Cloudspace was founded in 2010 to meet a growing need among Canadian businesses for cloud infrastructure that was actually built and operated in Canada. Since then, we've grown into a full-service cloud provider offering dedicated environments — private cloud clusters, high-performance VPS, Kubernetes platforms, and GPU-accelerated compute — for organizations that care about where their data lives and who operates the infrastructure underneath it.
Our customers include SaaS companies running production applications, regulated organizations in healthcare, legal, and financial services, and development teams that need Canadian-hosted infrastructure with modern tooling.
We are 100% Canadian-owned and operated. Your data is hosted in Canada, managed by Canadians, and governed exclusively by Canadian law. We are not a subsidiary of a foreign company. We are not subject to the U.S. CLOUD Act or any foreign data access legislation.
Cloudspace was founded to serve a market that the global hyperscalers and commodity hosts don't address well: Canadian organizations that need sovereign infrastructure with real performance, honest pricing, and people who answer when something goes wrong.
Our roots run deep in Canadian hosting. Cloudspace is a sister brand of Webfire Internet Services, which has been operating web hosting and server infrastructure from Edmonton, Alberta since 2002. That's over two decades of building, managing, and supporting Canadian hosting infrastructure — through technology shifts, data centre migrations, and thousands of customer deployments.
We launched Cloudspace to take everything we've learned running infrastructure at Webfire and apply it to the demands of modern cloud workloads: private cloud environments that need true isolation, Kubernetes clusters that need operational maturity, compliance-sensitive deployments that need Canadian jurisdiction guarantees, and AI workloads that need GPU acceleration without leaving Canadian soil.
Webfire continues to serve Canadian small businesses and agencies with shared hosting and entry-level VPS. Cloudspace serves organizations that need infrastructure-grade cloud built for scale, compliance, and performance.
Same team. Same operational standards. Different mission.
President and CEO
Daniel founded and has led the company's hosting operations since 2002, building and managing Canadian infrastructure across shared hosting, VPS, and private cloud environments. His direct operational experience spans over two decades of data centre partnerships, network architecture, and customer-facing infrastructure delivery in Canada.
Cloudspace is led and operated by the same team that has kept Canadian hosting infrastructure running since 2002. We're not a venture-funded startup figuring things out with your production workload. We're experienced operators building the next generation of our infrastructure platform.
We operate from our Tier II-ready Canadian data centre in Edmonton, Alberta. Our compute infrastructure runs on Proxmox VE — a proven open-source hypervisor trusted by thousands of organizations globally — with KVM virtualization for full hardware-level isolation.
All storage is enterprise-grade NVMe SSD with RAID protection. We don't use spinning disks for production workloads. Every environment includes private networking capabilities, snapshot infrastructure, and API-driven lifecycle management.
We chose Proxmox over proprietary hypervisors like VMware deliberately. It gives our customers the same isolation, performance, and management capabilities without the licensing overhead that gets passed through to your invoice. That's how we deliver private cloud infrastructure at a fraction of what VMware-based Canadian providers charge — without cutting corners on the infrastructure itself.
Our network is built with redundant upstream connectivity and DDoS protection as standard. We don't charge ingress or egress fees on private network traffic between your workloads.
We understand that for many of our customers, choosing a cloud provider isn't just a technology decision — it's a compliance decision. That's why we've built Cloudspace with regulatory readiness as a foundation, not an afterthought.
Currently in progress. We are actively pursuing SOC 2 Type II certification to provide our customers with independent, audited assurance of our security controls, availability practices, and data handling procedures.
All customer data is stored and processed in our Canadian data centre. We do not replicate, transfer, or expose data outside of Canada. This supports compliance with PIPEDA, provincial privacy legislation (including Quebec's Law 25, Ontario's PHIPA, and BC's FIPPA), and sector-specific data handling requirements.
Cloudspace is Canadian-owned and Canadian-operated. Our infrastructure is not subject to foreign data access laws, including the U.S. CLOUD Act. This distinction matters — foreign-owned cloud providers operating in Canada may still be compelled to disclose data to foreign governments under their home jurisdiction's laws, regardless of where the data is physically stored.
We maintain formal agreements with our data centre partners, ensuring physical security, power redundancy, and environmental controls meet the standards required for regulated workloads.
For organizations in healthcare, legal, financial services, or government that need documented compliance support, we offer a Compliance Documentation Package that includes audit log retention, quarterly compliance summaries, and PIPEDA/PHIPA-aligned reporting. See our Compliance page for details.
We don't publish a mission statement. Instead, here's how we actually operate:
When you buy dedicated resources, they're dedicated. Your CPU, RAM, and storage are allocated exclusively to your environment. No noisy neighbours, no shared-pool lottery.
The rate you sign up at is the rate you pay at every renewal. We don't use introductory pricing to get you in the door and raise it later. This applies across both Cloudspace and Webfire.
Traffic between your workloads on private VLANs is free and unlimited. We don't meter it, throttle it, or bill for it.
Proxmox instead of VMware isn't a cost-cutting shortcut — it's a better licensing model that means we don't pass vendor lock-in costs to you.
Our support team is Canadian-based. When something goes wrong with your infrastructure at 2 AM, you're talking to someone who knows the network, not someone reading a script.
Your data is in Edmonton, Alberta. We document it. We don't shuffle your data between regions for our operational convenience.
Whether you're evaluating private cloud for a compliance-sensitive workload, looking for high-performance Canadian VPS, or planning a migration from a hyperscaler, we'd like to hear about what you're building.
