Empowering digital sovereignty with Cegeka Cloud

As a European cloud provider, we embrace a hybrid approach: we have our own Cegeka Cloud, and we leverage the capabilities of the hyperscalers. We enable innovation for our customers by assisting them in selecting the best cloud platform for every use case. Beyond this infrastructure layer, our added value lies in our expertise and managed services in applications, data, and AI. This allows us to provide end to end solutions to our customers.

Due to geopolitical developments, there have been increasing demands for digital sovereignty within Europe, and this extends to cloud use. Some of our customers want to retain (part of) their data on European soil and avoid being locked into a non-European cloud platform.

Cegeka Cloud ticks all the boxes for situations where sovereignty is crucial. We operate seven data centers in Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxemburg, and Italy, serviced by our teams in Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, Romania, and Greece. This is how we can guarantee sovereignty within a European context. Furthermore, for customers required to comply with European regulations, such as DORA or NIS2, Cegeka Cloud can help meet this compliance. This is enforced through technical controls that ensure regulatory compliance. 

Hybrid-cloud approach

We’ve always embraced a hybrid cloud approach, ensuring our customers can innovate within the borders of their environment, with some applications and data residing on our own Cegeka Cloud, while others are hosted on the public cloud. We assist our customers in determining the correct solution for each use case.

Our cloud architecture ensures that our customers always have an exit strategy. If a customer opts to run an application on a hyperscaler, we can advise and help building a strategy that they can migrate their data and applications to Cegeka Cloud or the other way around at any time, without locking them into specific vendors. We implement this architecture using open standards, container technology, an effective abstraction layer, and infrastructure-as-code (IaC). In addition, our contracts include clear exit terms, data extraction rights, and migration support. 

Data centers are essential for defining Cloud services and very particular compared to the fast evolution of IT. Data center infrastructure investments span 10 to 15 years and take several years to build. In a data center multi-year vision this must be taken into account. It is important to incorporate flexibility into such plans so that new demands due to changes in technology can be accommodated. Therefore Cegeka has a healthy mix of investments in own datacenters and flexible contracts with data center partners when surges in demand arise, such as those associated with High-performance computing (HPC) and AI workloads.

Sustainable data centers 

We firmly believe that technology allows us to build a better world, and we aim for our solutions to be sustainable. Our ambition is to deliver carbon neutral Cegeka Cloud services by 2030. Our data centers already boast market-leading PUEs (power usage effectiveness) due to innovative cooling, renewable energy, use of biofuel. Zero-emission cloud services are becoming the norm, reducing the climate impact of our data centers. 

To make this journey toward net-zero data cloud services possible, we’re investing in our own wind turbine, expanding our existing solar panel park, and establishing new solar panel parks. We’re building these off-site energy production facilities close to our data centers to reduce the burden on the distribution and transmission network and to optimize efficiency. Our goal is to be fully self-sufficient in electrical energy from renewable sources by the end of 2026. 

Recently, our efforts were acknowledged when we won the “Most Sustainable ICT Company of the Year” award at the Data News Awards 2025. However, our dedication to sustainability is more than just an IT narrative: it’s embedded within the core of our business. Under VOKA’s guidance, we’ve been advancing our Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) journey in the last few years. We’re on track to obtain the SDG Champion Certification in 2025.

Applications, data, and AI 

 Our story doesn’t stop at the infrastructure layer. With our Cloud & Digital Platforms approach, we combine Cegeka,the private or and public cloud with digital platforms to support a variety of customer use cases. With over 30 years of experience, we guide organizations through the evolving digital landscape by seamlessly integrating legacy established and modern technologies. Through our managed services and consultancy, we help our customers in innovating by enabling application modernization, adopting appropriate data strategies, and building effective AI use cases.
