Cleversafe is based in Chicago, Illinois.[2] Cleversafe sells an object storage system, which it calls the Dispersed Storage Network[3] or dsNet. Cleversafe was founded in Chicago, Illinois in 2004 by S. Christopher Gladwin and was originally based in IIT's technology incubator.
The company has stated that it provides "limitless data storage."[2] The company had 116 patents issued to it in 2014.[4]
IBM announced the completion of its acquisition of Cleversafe on November 6, 2015 and has since rebranded the company's products as IBM Cloud Object Storage.[5]
