European sovereign S3-compatible object storage expanding into GPU cloud
Impossible Cloud runs GDPR-compliant S3-compatible object storage on a Ceph, Kubernetes and bare-metal stack (IPMI, Redfish, iDRAC) spread across Hetzner, OVHcloud and CoreWeave, while moving off AWS. Job posts point to a push beyond storage into GPU compute and AI infrastructure, backed by sales-led hiring and a revenue stack built on HubSpot, Clay-style enrichment, n8n and Superset.
