May, 2026 : OVHcloud Opens Auckland Local Zone For Sovereign Cloud
📅 - French cloud provider OVHcloud has opened its first Asia Pacific Local Zone in Auckland through a partnership with Datacentre220, extending low-latency public cloud services into New Zealand as sovereignty concerns reshape infrastructure decisions. The deployment gives regional organizations local data residency options while reducing latency for workloads previously dependent on Australian or broader international cloud infrastructure and connectivity routes.
For OVHcloud, the Auckland launch is less about entering another cloud market and more about positioning itself inside the growing debate around digital sovereignty, data locality, and infrastructure independence.

📅 - OVHcloud and CGI Win European Space Agency Data Platform Deal - OVHcloud and CGI have won a 30 month European Space Agency contract to build a computing platform for Europe's Earth observation data. OVHcloud will supply cloud infrastructure, while CGI will design and integrate the system. The award gives a European provider a strategic public workload, but leaves the capacity, contract value and operating economics undisclosed for now.
The platform, called Digital EO, is intended to combine storage, computing and AI tools for researchers, public agencies and businesses. It will connect with existing national and European facilities rather than replace them outright. That makes interoperability a requirement with direct operating consequences. Users [...]
📅 - OVHcloud Questions Business Case for Europe’s AI Gigafactories - OVHcloud is questioning whether Europe's emerging AI Gigafactory model can support the economics required to justify massive GPU investment, arguing that current public commitments leave operators carrying much of the commercial risk. The concerns were laid out in a newly published blog article by OVHcloud founder, Chairman and CEO Octave Klaba, who challenges several assumptions underpinning the proposed infrastructure model.
Klaba argues that single-site designs, nationally bounded demand, and the rapid depreciation of GPU hardware could leave multibillion-euro infrastructure projects struggling to maintain sufficient utilization. His argument is not that Europe lacks a need for [...]
📅 - Hostinger Moves AI Agent Deeper Into Web Hosting Operations - Hostinger has replaced its Kodee support assistant with Hostinger Agent, extending artificial intelligence from customer service into website management, marketing, analytics and recurring business tasks. The hosting company says its earlier system resolved 91 percent of roughly 1.5 million monthly support conversations, giving the new agent a substantial installed base and a far broader operational mandate now.
The shift matters because Hostinger is no longer treating AI as a layer added to support. Hostinger Agent can work across websites, stores, domains, business email, newsletters, previous conversations and ongoing projects. It is also available inside Hostinger AI Builder, where [...]
📅 - Extreme Networks Brings Context-Aware AI Into Network Operations - Extreme Networks has made its Agent ONE Coworker generally available worldwide, embedding a context-aware AI system inside Extreme Platform ONE to analyze network behavior, recommend fixes, generate reports, and escalate support cases. The vendor says customers can resolve problems up to 15 times faster, extending automation deeper into day-to-day enterprise network operations without removing human oversight entirely.
The more consequential part is not the chatbot interface. Extreme Networks is trying to make its software watch the network continuously, compare current activity with historical baselines, and surface issues before an operator explicitly starts investigating. That shifts [...]
📅 - OVHcloud Brings Portable Plakar Backup Into Its Public Cloud - OVHcloud is bringing Plakar's backup technology directly into its Public Cloud, giving customers a managed way to protect virtual machines, Kubernetes, databases, file systems and AI workloads while keeping control of encryption keys. The service also promises portable recovery outside OVHcloud, a design aimed at reducing operational sprawl without turning backup into another source of cloud dependence.
The integration lands in a part of cloud infrastructure that remains surprisingly fragmented. Enterprises routinely protect different workloads with different backup products, storage targets and operating procedures. That is manageable until environments spread across containers, managed [...]
