What NumSpot does

NumSpot is a French sovereign cloud platform provider founded in 2023 and headquartered in Courbevoie, France, operating with 51-100 employees and backed by four leading French institutional and corporate shareholders: Banque des Territoires (Caisse des Dépôts group), Docaposte (La Poste Group), Dassault Systèmes, and Bouygues Telecom. The company delivers a hybrid, portable, and reversible cloud platform built on Outscale's SecNumCloud-qualified IaaS backbone, providing IaaS compute/storage/networking, managed PaaS services (Managed Kubernetes, Managed PostgreSQL with TimeScaleDB and Vector extensions), and — following a June 2026 expansion — managed AI services for orchestrating LLMs, vector and graph-based RAG databases, and AI agents. The platform is governed through a unified console, REST API, CLI, and Terraform provider, with design principles centered on open standards, portability, reversibility, and interoperability across on-premises, public cloud, and hybrid environments.

NumSpot serves primarily regulated French organizations: the public sector (ministries, local authorities, public agencies), healthcare providers requiring HDS certification, financial services and insurance firms, Operators of Vital Importance (OIVs) and Operators of Essential Services (OSEs), and large enterprises with sensitive data. The company holds HDS and ISO 27001 certifications and is pursuing SecNumCloud qualification, with listings on the UGAP, C.A.I.H., and Resah public procurement frameworks enabling direct public-sector purchasing. Eric Haddad, formerly VP at IBM France and a former Microsoft and Google executive, leads the company as CEO since March 2025.

Revenue is generated through usage-based IaaS/PaaS billing (per-second, no commitment, no exit fees), usage-based AI/GPU compute, subscription-based packaged offerings (Veeam backup, VirtualBrowser secure browsing, Allonia-powered AI Assistant, Sopra Steria health data backup, Alter Way SIEM with SIEM Smart and Premium tiers scheduled for Q4), and a sovereign marketplace that lists certified third-party SaaS, cloud, and AI solutions. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales with an extensive channel network (Sopra Steria, Devoteam, IBM, OCTO Technology, ALTEN, SCC, SMLB, JEMS, and others) plus partner co-developed products.
