Data Processing

Ensuring Continuous Service

Contingency Planning

CLS has developed its own contingency plans to guarantee uninterrupted operations and fast recovery in the event of an incident.

These plans cover every technical aspect of the infrastructure, including two parallel-functioning data centers that ensure full redundancy.

Fully Redundant Data Centers

Both Tier-3 certified data centers are equipped with identical systems—from storage network connections to application-hosting servers.

CLS prioritizes service reliability and continuity through structured processes and procedures, including data recovery, inbound and outbound communications, workspace management, and more.

High-Level Security

Our two data centers are housed in access-restricted buildings, protected by individual access badges. Inside, only a limited number of authorized personnel—including IT and operations teams—have physical access.

Additional biometric controls secure both the data centers and our operations center: first-level badge control at building entry, and, restricted zones secured by dual electronic badge access systems.

A True 24/7/365 Offering

Powerful equipment alone isn’t enough to ensure continuous operations.

At CLS, certified operators work around the clock in rotating shifts, forming teams of system, network, security, and database administrators, along with dedicated operations engineers to maintain decision-making continuity.

With nearly 40 years of experience, CLS runs mission-critical data acquisition and processing systems 24/7, operated by computer science graduates skilled in server management, telecom systems, operating environments, and databases—all while strictly adhering to written procedures.

Two-Tier Operational Support

CLS provides two levels of operational support:

IT support: infrastructure management, system administration, database operations
Application support: tracking and control of product generation and archiving, as well as end-user online services

Full Control of the Data Value Chain

In a world flooded with data, what sets CLS apart is its end-to-end mastery of the data value chain—from acquisition and calibration to integration, interpretation, and actionable insight. This includes acquisition, calibration, validation, processing, fusion, integration, analysis, interpretation, dissemination, and strategic recommendations.

Without full control, data loses its value. At CLS, we ensure every piece of information is reliable and relevant.
