Sovereign Cloud

Clever Cloud: a Sovereign Cloud created in France

Founded in Nantes in 2011 and present in several French cities, we design our services and technologies in France and defend European digital sovereignty.

Ensure strategic autonomy for your data

At Clever Cloud, we are convinced that it is fundamental for its strategic autonomy that Europe relies on its own infrastructures and software technologies for hosting data and applications. This enables companies and public authorities to avoid dependence on non-European solutions.

    01 Choosing digital sovereignty

    This is an essential democratic challenge, because technological and economic dependence reduces our collective ability to make free decisions.

    As the foundation of so many products and services, cloud hosting and deployment technologies are particularly sensitive to these dependency issues, and require a high degree of sensitivity to the need for digital sovereignty. Et cela aussi bien pour les acteurs privés que les acteurs publics. By designing leading European technologies independent from those of American or Asian giants, and offering an effective and demanding alternative, Clever Cloud plays an active part in preserving freedom to innovate and competition, which drives all players to provide the best possible service. Clever Cloud’s commitment to free and healthy competition safeguards the freedom to innovate beneficial to all.

    02 Makers at heart

    We understand the needs of the developers and startups who place their trust in us, because we design the software with which we like to deploy our own applications. To rely mainly on third-party software would be to give up both cultivating what makes us different and creating the technologies we need for ourselves.

    We create and contribute to many European Open Source projects (Biscuit, Sōzu…) and are member of Eclipse Foundation.
    Convinced that cooperation between European players is key to the quality and completeness of sovereign cloud offerings, we also choose to work with French and European industrial partners, e.g. OVHCloud, Outscale, Scaleway, Kalray, Vates, 2CRSi, and many more. Clever Cloud is thus part of an ecosystem of European partners who work daily to defend and improve our digital sovereignty, notably through the commitment of its CEO as Chairman of the Open Internet Project..

    03 Cloud computing, the European way

    Building a European cloud doesn’t just mean being proud to support our countries’ economies and contribute to the European Union’s strategic autonomy. It also means making different, innovative technological choices, enabling Clever Cloud to deliver unique, high-performance services, while respecting European values and legislation.

    While U.S. intelligence laws allow access to data entrusted to hosting providers controlled by U.S. entities, Clever Cloud guarantees its customers immunity to intrusive extra-European laws with extraterritorial reach, thanks to capital wholly owned by Europeans, a head office in the European Union, and no subsidiaries in the USA.
    Clever Cloud therefore enables its customers to benefit from the strictest and most protective European legislation for users of cloud services, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Cloud Act, the Digital Services Act (DSA), the Digital Markets Act (DMA), or EU standards and regulations relating to cybersecurity and ethics in digital.
    Last but not least, Clever Cloud helps to reveal and retain local talent in Europe, helping to create the European technologies of today and tomorrow.
