Sovereign Cloud for France: Snowflake and Bleu
From the official release
Bleu is built on the principle that digital sovereignty must be structural: French data centers in France, operated by French entities, governed by French law and auditable by French authorities, especially the French national cybersecurity agency, ANSSI. Bleu holds ISO 27001 and HDS (French health data hosting) certifications.
Bleu is targeting qualification under France's SecNumCloud 3.2 framework, which is among the most rigorous cloud security standards in Europe. This qualification signals compliance support and a fundamental commitment that the cloud environment operates with a level of independence and protection that can be relied upon for sensitive workloads.
