Market Overview

France is becoming a key data center hub in Europe, led by Paris as a central location for hyperscale and cloud infrastructure. Other cities like Marseille and Lyon are also gaining traction due to strategic connectivity. The market’s growth is fueled by increasing digital adoption, rising data traffic, AI, IoT, big data, 5G, and government support through initiatives like the France 2030 plan. Public-private partnerships are encouraged to build energy-efficient data centers, supported by tax incentives and sustainability programs like the Green Data Center initiative.

To ensure data sovereignty, France promotes sovereign cloud services, keeping data storage and processing within the country. France’s global connectivity is robust, with 31 existing submarine cables and five more underway, including Africa-1 and SeaMeWe-6. As of March 2025, there are 146 colocation data centers in cities such as Paris (54 centers), Lyon, and Marseille.

Recent developments include Evroc’s AI-ready hyperscale data center in Mougins and Brookfield’s $20.7 billion AI infrastructure investment. Major cloud providers like AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft continue expanding. Companies such as Air France-KLM and France Télévisions are adopting cloud and AI solutions, while OVHcloud launched a new 3-AZ cloud region in Paris. France’s data center ecosystem is thriving with strong digital, financial, and policy support.
