OVHcloud now has a strategic partnership with Google Cloud to offer a joint private cloud with local data sovereignty. The partnership aims to offer strict data controls, security, transparency and privacy while deploying cloud native applications. In this, OVHcloud will introduce a new Hosted Private Cloud offering by bringing Google's open source-compatible Anthos technology to its own scalable infrastructure, fully operated and managed in Europe by OVHcloud teams.
As part of this partnership, OVHcloud and Google Cloud aim to drive a critical ecosystem of third-party developers, "supporting digital skills development and fostering collaboration" with the open source community.
“We are proud to partner with Google Cloud to jointly deliver innovative solutions that will meet Europe’s growing requirements for data sovereignty. This is a significant step forward to create new value for the European Market. Combining cutting edge technologies for the developer community while strengthening a powerful ecosystem of players united by a common set of values is core to OVHcloud. This partnership opens the doors to wide new possibilities, we are therefore glad to enable it together,” declares Michel Paulin, CEO at OVHcloud.
“We are excited to sign our first partnership of this kind with OVHcloud,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO at Google Cloud. “Listening to our customers, partners and policymakers in Europe, we understand their need for even greater control and autonomy. We address this in many ways and look forward to continuing to deliver on our customer commitments in a meaningful way with a partner with whom we share values of trust, innovation, collaboration, openness, security, interoperability, transparency, and environmental responsibilities to jointly add value and help our customers accelerate their digital transformation.”
