France selects domestic cloud provider Scaleway a subsidiary of Iliad to host the country's Health Data Hub replacing Microsoft Azure. The contract adds to Scaleway momentum in Europe after the European Commission awarded a 180 million euro cloud tender to Scaleway Post Telecom OVHcloud and STACKIT in April 2026. The new platform is set to be operational between late 2026 and early 2027. The French government in 2019 chose Microsoft Azure to host health data without a competitive tender drawing sustained legal and political scrutiny.
