Xebia and Scaleway Partner to Expand Sovereign Cloud and AI Capabilities Across Europe
April 22nd, 2026

Amsterdam, Netherlands – April 22nd, 2026 – Xebia, a global AI-first digital transformation and engineering partner, today announced a strategic partnership with Scaleway, a European cloud provider, to expand organizations’ access to sovereign cloud infrastructure and accelerate the adoption of AI and data-driven solutions.
This partnership brings together Xebia’s expertise in cloud, data, and AI with Scaleway’s European-built cloud platform, enabling organizations to design and operate digital solutions with greater flexibility around data residency, compliance, and infrastructure choice.
Strengthening Sovereign and Resilient Cloud Strategies
As organizations navigate increasing regulatory pressure and geopolitical complexity, sovereign cloud capabilities are becoming a critical component of broader resilience strategies. The introduction of regulations such as NIS2 and the EU AI Act is accelerating the need for greater control over data, infrastructure, and operational risk, especially for organizations operating in regulated industries.
In this context, sovereign infrastructure is becoming an increasingly important option for sensitive workloads, enabling organizations in regulated industries to regain greater control over their data, operations, and risk.
Scaleway, part of the iliad Group, operates a fully European cloud infrastructure and has built a strong position in the European ecosystem, particularly in high-performance compute and AI infrastructure. The company is recognized for its focus on sustainability and performance, supporting Europe’s demand for independent, resilient, and compliant cloud solutions.
“Organizations need to consider sovereign infrastructure solutions as part of their resilience strategy,”. “As a trusted advisor, Xebia stays close to market developments to ensure organizations have access to the solutions and services that best fit their specific needs. With this partnership, we strengthen our ability to offer clients greater choice in sovereign solutions, aligned with regulatory and strategic requirements.”

Advancing AI-First and Data-Driven Innovation
In addition to expanding infrastructure choice, the partnership aligns with Xebia’s AI-first strategy, emphasizing the enablement of AI and data-driven use cases for organizations.
Scaleway has made significant investments in AI infrastructure, including GPU-based compute environments designed to support large-scale AI workloads. Xebia enables organizations with infrastructure that is ready for advanced data platforms, generative AI, and agentic AI systems, accelerating time-to-value for AI initiatives.
Delivering End-to-End Cloud and AI Capabilities
The collaboration will focus on delivering integrated solutions across:
- Cloud and data platform modernization
- AI, machine learning, and generative AI workloads
- Agentic AI systems and multi-agent architectures
- Application modernization and cloud-native development
- Cost optimization and FinOps
- Security, compliance, and governance
By combining Xebia’s consulting and engineering capabilities with Scaleway’s infrastructure, organizations gain access to scalable, developer-friendly environments that support both traditional workloads and next-generation AI systems.
“We are proud to announce this partnership with Xebia, a trusted engineering partner with a decades-long track record of delivering the right solutions for its clients”. “This collaboration strengthens our mission to provide strong European infrastructure solutions and support organizations in building future-ready digital platforms.”
