SkyeConnex Signs Revolution Data Platforms (RDP) as Technology and Deployment Partner
Microsoft and Databricks data specialists to deliver SkyeConnex Data Sovereignty as a Service (DSaaS) deployments across Azure, Microsoft Fabric and Databricks environments
OTTAWA, Canada — October 29, 2026 — SkyeConnex Corporation, the company that defined the Data Sovereignty as a Service (DSaaS) category, today announced it has signed Revolution Data Platforms (RDP) as its technology and deployment partner. RDP will support SkyeConnex deployments for enterprise and public sector customers, and for SkyeConnex’s OEM hosting partners. RDP brings deep hands-on experience in cloud analytics, data governance and AI on Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Fabric and Databricks.
The agreement builds on SkyeConnex’s partnership with ThinkOn, announced earlier this fall, and its strategic alignment with Q-M Networks on quantum-safe data sovereignty. It adds the delivery capacity to take those partnerships to customers.
Why it matters
Organizations are moving sensitive data into analytics and AI platforms faster than they can control who is able to reach it. Residency commitments and contracts describe where data should sit, but they do not stop a provider, or a legal order directed at a provider, from reaching it. SkyeConnex adds a custody layer beneath the platforms customers already use, designed so that no single provider can reconstruct a readable file. Customers keep their existing clouds, and sovereignty is turned on as a service rather than built.
What the partnership covers
- Deployment and integration. RDP will plan and deliver SkyeConnex deployments, connecting custody to existing data estates. This includes SkyeBucket, SkyeConnex’s S3-compatible gateway for analytics and database workloads.
- Analytics and AI workloads. RDP will help customers place sovereign custody beneath Microsoft Fabric, Azure Databricks and Power BI pipelines. RDP will also support SkyeGXU, SkyeConnex’s sovereign AI substrate, which sits under data science workbenches rather than replacing them.
- Technology collaboration. The companies will jointly develop adapters, reference architectures and governance patterns aligned with Canadian guidance, including CAN/DGSI 100-8.
- Partner delivery. RDP provides implementation capacity for SkyeConnex’s OEM hosting partners and their customers, so partners can offer data sovereignty without building a services practice of their own.
“Our model has always been to keep the platforms customers already trust and add custody underneath. Most of the sensitive data we’re asked to protect lives in Azure, Fabric and Databricks, and Revolution Data’s team has spent years building on exactly those platforms. With RDP delivering alongside us, our hosting partners and their customers get sovereignty by architecture, deployed by people who already know their data estate.”
— Ross Norrie, CEO/Founder of SkyeConnex
“Our clients want the full value of cloud analytics and AI without giving up control of their data. We’re proud to add SkyeConnex to our network of cloud technology partners, and we see it as a natural complement to our existing cloud strategy. SkyeConnex makes that possible by architecture, not by contract. We’re pleased to be the partner helping customers put sovereign custody under the platforms they already run.”
— Mohamed Sharif, CEO of Revolution Data Platforms

About SkyeConnex
SkyeConnex Corporation, based in Ottawa, Canada, provides Data Sovereignty as a Service (DSaaS), powered by its Raidr.cloud engine and built on the premise of sovereignty by architecture, not by promise. It uses client-side encryption, dynamic erasure coding set by geopolicy, and post-quantum cryptography (ML-KEM-1024 / FIPS 203 and ML-DSA-87 / FIPS 204). These are designed so that no single provider, and no legal order directed at any one provider, can access or reconstruct a customer’s stored data. Customers keep their existing clouds and layer custody on top. More information is available at skyeconnex.com.
