Cleversafe

cleversafe.jpgCleversafe takes the best concepts of Internet data networking and applies it to data storage. Their technology, called Information Dispersal, works similarly to TCP/IP packets–that is, they store information on data slices and store these slices on a network of local or remote servers. Cleversafe’s technology then takes this well-dispersed information and reassembles it into easy to use packages.
