Managed business infrastructure
Dedicated and virtual servers physically located in Switzerland, fully managed by the operator who runs the network — built for fintech, healthtech, legal-tech and EU-regulated SaaS that need data residency they can prove.
AWS, GCP and Azure remain subject to the US CLOUD Act regardless of the region you select. Choosing an EU or Swiss availability zone changes where the bytes sit, not which legal system can reach the company holding them.
DORA, NIS2, GDPR enforcement and the Swiss FADP now treat data location and operator control as auditable items. "Trust us, it's compliant" no longer survives a vendor review.
Many providers resell rack space with no operator on the floor, no control of DNS, billing or identity, and support routed through third-party SaaS. You inherit their dependencies and their failure modes.
Every service below runs in production today on Swiss infrastructure we operate ourselves. Nothing here is roadmap.
Dedicated server or KVM VPS in Switzerland with 24/7 hardware monitoring, OS patching, quarterly-minimum kernel updates, configuration management and network ACLs.
Daily backups to Proxmox Backup Server, held on-site and off-site, with tested restores so recovery is verified rather than assumed.
A self-hosted Matrix/Synapse instance in Switzerland on your own domain, for teams that can't put internal conversations through Slack for compliance reasons.
Zimbra-fork business email hosted in Switzerland on your domain, with calendar, contacts and file sharing for the whole team.
VoIP telephony on your own numbers under Swiss jurisdiction, run on an Asterisk stack we operate end to end.
A BTCPay relay for clients who need to accept BTC, XMR, USDT and Lightning under their own brand, on infrastructure they control.
The technical layer
The legal layer
Data physically resides in Switzerland and is governed by the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP). Switzerland holds an EU adequacy decision, which means data transfers between the EU and Switzerland are treated as GDPR-compatible.
The operating entity is Swiss Layer LLC, incorporated in the United States. The legal vehicle is American; the data and the operations are Swiss. We state this because your compliance review will surface it — and because transparent jurisdictional framing is the point of this offering.
If your requirements call for a strictly Swiss legal counterparty, contact us and we'll discuss the alternatives openly rather than paper over the structure.
All managed services are covered by our existing Service Level Agreements.
| Availability SLA | 99.9% on managed infrastructure, per our published Service Level Agreement. |
|---|---|
| Breach credit | 10% of the monthly fee for every 0.1% below target, up to a maximum of 50% of the monthly fee. |
| Service status | Maintenance windows, incidents and service updates are communicated to customers via the client portal. |
| How it's measured | Externally via UptimeRobot and internally via LibreNMS, so the number isn't ours alone to assert. |
We are not currently SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified. We operate to ISO 27001 controls as our operational standard and have begun SOC 2 Type I preparation. If your vertical requires certified attestation today, tell us — we'll either refer you to certified partners or walk you through our certification timeline. We won't claim a certificate we don't hold.
Controls already in place
Teams that must keep regulated data inside a defined jurisdiction and document where it lives.
Workloads handling PHI/PII that need to sit outside US jurisdiction.
Platforms holding client-privileged material that demands a clear chain of custody.
Operations that need Swiss jurisdictional clarity for the systems they run.
Vendors whose own customers impose data-residency requirements down the chain.
If you're looking for unmetered streaming or content that tends to draw abuse complaints, see the main SwissLayer pricing instead.
This managed offering is built around accountable, named operators on both sides. It is not designed for that use case.
We're specific about the fit because a B2B buyer who can trust our "no" can trust our "yes."
SwissLayer has operated 100% Swiss-located infrastructure since 2016. You get a direct line to the operator who runs the network. Support is not outsourced.
