French cloud infrastructure provider offering web hosting, dedicated servers and cloud computing from its own European data centers.
Rents servers and cloud capacity on monthly or hourly plans, mostly on servers it designs and assembles itself and cools with its own water-cooling, which keeps the cost of capacity down. The Klaba family, led by founder Octave Klaba, retains control, and Europe provides most of its sales.
In one line: Europe's answer to a smaller AWS/DigitalOcean.
Moat: narrow (cost advantage, scale, data). Owns its own data centers/hardware for cost control and EU data-sovereignty appeal versus US hyperscalers.
Headquarters: Roubaix, France · Founded: 1999
