What cegedim.cloud does

cegedim.cloud is a French sovereign cloud operator and wholly-owned subsidiary of Cegedim Group, founded in 2009 and headquartered in Boulogne-Billancourt. It provides hosting, managed services, and cloud infrastructure exclusively from five Tier III-certified datacenters located in mainland France (grouped into two regional campuses in Île-de-France and Occitanie), serving French healthcare providers, government agencies, defense and operators of vital importance, and large enterprises. Its product portfolio spans four core layers — IT Outsourcing/Infogérance, managed PaaS, SecNumCloud-qualified IaaS (CegNumCloud), and Colocation — operated through a self-service Cloud Management Platform called ITCare and complemented by managed databases (MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, SQL Server, OpenSearch, Valkey), managed Kubernetes (Cegedim Container Services), Object Storage (S3-compatible), GlusterFS, OverDrive document management (based on Nextcloud), Cegedim Cloud Backup (with Kiwi Backup), Enercare carbon-footprint tracking, and the newly launched Cegedim EPM for SMEs and ETIs.

The business monetizes through a hybrid mix of recurring managed-services contracts, subscription-based platform and colocation fees, usage-based IaaS/object-storage billing, and professional services for migration, DevOps, and FinOps — all priced on a quote basis with monthly billing and no public list pricing. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales targeting large accounts with channel distribution through UGAP for French public-sector procurement and the SCC France partnership for the CAIH healthcare cloud offer. The company is differentiated by a deep regulatory and certification stack (HDS V2 across all activities 1-6 held since 2009, SecNumCloud 3.2 from ANSSI awarded December 2024, ISO 27001:2022, ISO 20000-1:2018, ISO 27017/27018, ISO 50001, ISO 14001, ISAE 3402 Type II) and an explicit sovereignty positioning that explicitly attests no exposure to extra-European law. Customers include the Présidence de la République, Assemblée Nationale, Ministères Sociaux, IGN, CNRS, Thales, EDF, Janssen, Crédit Immobilier de France, Accenture, and Kinéis; across 4,800+ hosted applications, 300+ private clouds, and 400,000+ end users the company employs 143 staff firmographically (over 200 IT collaborators per its own statement) under the leadership of President Frédéric Le Guillou, Deputy CEO Pierre Marucchi, and Cybersecurity Director Romain Vergniol.
