Paris, France – 5th May 2026 – Telehouse, a global leader in data hosting and interconnection solutions, announces the completion and commissioning of a module dedicated to artificial intelligence at its TH3 Paris Magny campus. This project, carried out in collaboration with APL Data Centre, marks a new milestone in the development of infrastructures designed to meet Europe’s requirements for performance, trust, and digital sovereignty.

This 2 MW module has been designed to address the growing demand for high-performance computing driven by artificial intelligence use cases. It is part of the continuation of previously announced investments, integrating technologies tailored to high-density environments.

This new facility enhances the capacity to host critical infrastructures, particularly for strategic players in cloud and high-performance computing.

A Structuring Project for the European AI Value Chain

Beyond technological performance, this project is part of a strategic initiative to build a European artificial intelligence value chain, based on the complementarity of leading industrial and technological players.

The infrastructure notably hosts environments operated by OUTSCALE, a Dassault Systèmes brand and a key player in sovereign cloud services in France. The integration and operational deployment of these environments have been entrusted to Bull, a national champion in the sector, owned by the French state, acting as the integrator of OUTSCALE solutions.

In this context, Bull ensures the assembly, optimisation, and deployment of high-performance computing platforms, guaranteeing consistency between physical infrastructures, GPU architectures, high-performance networks, and software layers dedicated to artificial intelligence.

This project illustrates full control of the value chain, from physical infrastructure to AI environment operations: Telehouse for hosting and interconnection, APL for design and construction, OUTSCALE for sovereign cloud computing power, and Bull for industrial integration of the platforms.

This integrated approach enables the development of high-performance and secure platforms, suited to critical industrial uses such as simulation, advanced engineering, and the processing of sensitive data.

A Concrete Response to Digital Sovereignty Challenges

Located in France, this module operates within a legal framework strictly governed by local law, ensuring a high level of data protection and meeting growing demands for digital sovereignty.

In an international context shaped by issues of extraterritoriality, Telehouse advocates an approach based on infrastructure control, data localisation, and cooperation among stakeholders sharing high standards of security and compliance.

The implementation of this module relies on the commitment of a structured European technological ecosystem, capable of covering all needs related to artificial intelligence infrastructures and competing at the European level with industry giants.

“Europe will not be able to develop competitive artificial intelligence without infrastructures capable of supporting massive computing workloads, within a sovereign and secure framework. With this new module, we provide a concrete response to this strategic challenge, enabling companies to develop their AI use cases on solid and controlled foundations,” said Sami Slim, CEO of Telehouse France.

A European Ambition for AI

This inauguration reflects a strong conviction: sovereign artificial intelligence relies on full control of the value chain, from physical infrastructure to end-use applications.

By structuring an ecosystem bringing together Telehouse, APL, OUTSCALE, and Bull, this project demonstrates France and Europe’s ability to design, operate, and industrialise globally competitive artificial intelligence platforms, while ensuring technological independence, data security, and performance.
