Paris, Nantes – France, January 17, 2023 – Clever Cloud and Scaleway unite to offer a PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) solution hosted in DC5, one of the most energy and water-efficient data centers in Europe, built and run by Scaleway. The two major European cloud players make it possible to deploy websites and web applications in record time, without prior knowledge of cloud technologies.

Web Platform – powered by Clever Cloud: making the deployment of web applications faster with a managed and sovereign service

The goal of Clever Cloud and Scaleway joining forces is to offer developers, startups, SMEs, and agencies a high performance and sovereign alternative to automate the deployment of their web applications in a sustainable ecosystem.

Web Platform – powered by Clever Cloud allows developers to deploy code directly via pushes to GitHub, using any runtime, and does not require knowledge of server and infrastructure management.

Thanks to a number of add-ons, including services such as managed databases and storage, Web Platform allows developers to scale their web applications in record timing, and considerably reduce their time-to-market.

“Web Platform allows users to benefit from the compatibility of the two providers’ catalogs, and the increased possibilities of this bold, innovative and sovereign offering. We are delighted to be working with Scaleway once more, and we’ve built a sustainable partnership not only to serve the ecosystem and our clients, but also to respond to market needs.” Quentin Adam, CEO, Clever Cloud.

Bringing together two key European cloud players

The launch of Web Platform enhances the catalogs of both Scaleway and Clever Cloud – two companies known for their commitment to building an alternative, European, sovereign, and sustainable cloud.

DC5, Scaleway’s next generation data center, is integrated into the Clever Cloud offering, allowing developers to deploy their applications in a carbon neutral data center which uses 30-40% less energy and 90% less water than a traditional data center.

Web Platform – powered by Clever Cloud completes Scaleway’s range of managed services and products. Scaleway clients will now be able to considerably accelerate their website launches thanks to a powerful, sustainable, and sovereign offer.

“This partnership unites the complementary strengths of Scaleway and Clever Cloud. The new offer is another milestone toward the simplified adoption of the cloud in a sovereign environment which respects our planet.” Gaspard Plantrou, Senior Vice President PaaS, Scaleway.
