The Milan-based facility marks the 44th in the company\u2019s global network and represents a key milestone: it is the company\u2019s first deployment outside France to feature a three-availability-zone (3-AZ) architecture.<\/span><span id=\"input-sentence~1\"><\/p>\n<p>This 3-AZ configuration, with discrete power and network connections over three colocated locations, provides extreme resilience and fault tolerance for mission-critical workloads. Engineers built the model for industries that cannot tolerate downtime\u2014consider government systems, financial services, and healthcare infrastructure\u2014particularly as European customers increasingly demand solutions that align with data residency legislation and regional security regimes.<\/span><span id=\"input-sentence~2\"><\/p>\n<p>More than a national milestone, Milan fits into a broader international roadmap. In recent months, OVHcloud has launched services in markets like Toronto, Mumbai, and Sydney, while also pushing its Local Zones initiative. That program aims to place cloud capabilities closer to users through lightweight, low-latency deployments tailored to local needs.<\/span><span id=\"input-sentence~3\"> OVHcloud says additional Local Zones are coming to Johannesburg, Tallinn, and Bogot\u00e1 by 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Since its 2021 IPO, the French provider has invested over \u20ac1 billion in infrastructure expansion and now operates 28 Local Zones and 44 full-scale data centers.<\/span> The company expects the Milan site to bring public cloud services online by the end of 2025.<\/p>\n<p>With more than 1.6 million customers across 140 countries and a total of 450,000 servers deployed globally, OVHcloud\u2019s expansion reflects a calculated move to serve regions where proximity, compliance, and control are increasingly as critical as compute power.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OVHcloud has opened its first data center in Italy, expanding its footprint into Southern Europe and reinforcing its push to deliver sovereign cloud services across the continent.
