À propos de Scaleway

Scaleway is the French cloud subsidiary of Iliad Group, Xavier Niel's Euronext-Paris-listed telecoms and tech holding (parent of Free in France and Iliad Italia), operated as Scaleway SAS at 8 Rue de la Ville l'Évêque, 75008 Paris. The company traces back to 1999 (Online.net legacy) and runs four multi-AZ cloud regions in Europe with 65+ global points of presence and 5,000+ GPUs. Flagship customers include Mistral AI, Hugging Face, Aternos, France Télévisions, and Veepee. The product surface covers 100+ cloud services including bare metal (Dedibox, Elastic Metal, Apple Mac mini), GPU instances (L40S, L4, H100, B300-SXM), Kubernetes, serverless containers, managed databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB), Data Warehouse for ClickHouse, AI clusters, and generative APIs.

For procurement-grade EU buyers Scaleway has two structural advantages that place it alongside Hetzner and OVHcloud as an EU-owned, EU-hosted provider with no CLOUD Act exposure. First, on 27 April 2026 it was selected, alongside Post Telecom (with Clever Cloud and OVHcloud), STACKIT, and Proximus (with S3NS, Clarence, and Mistral AI), as one of four winners of the European Commission's Cloud III Dynamic Purchasing System, the €180M sovereign-cloud procurement framework that explicitly excluded AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. Second, it holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and HDS certification for healthcare data hosting (issued by the French National Agency for Digital Health in July 2024, with no transfer of personal health data permitted outside France), and it is working through ANSSI SecNumCloud 3.2 qualification, the French government cloud-security framework designed to provide immunity from US extraterritorial laws including the CLOUD Act and FISA Section 702. Scaleway's own security pages describe that qualification as not yet granted and announce an upcoming qualified zone, so buyers who need SecNumCloud today should read it as in progress rather than in place. Scaleway has also been selected to host the French national Health Data Hub, replacing Microsoft Azure in that role, a high-profile public-sector sovereignty win.

Pricing is highly competitive: the Stardust instance class starts from approximately €2/month (smallest virtual instance), Public Cloud Compute scales up from there with hourly and monthly billing, and bare metal Dedibox dedicated servers compete directly with Hetzner on price. Best fit: EU public-sector buyers, regulated industries (healthcare, finance, defence), AI-workload teams who want GPU capacity inside an EU sovereign-cloud envelope, and any procurement-grade buyer who can work inside an HDS-certified French envelope while the SecNumCloud qualification runs its course. Together with OVHcloud and Hetzner, Scaleway forms the recommended three-pillar EU hyperscaler-alternative stack on this directory.
