Sovereign Cloud Services
IaaS, Managed Kubernetes, VDI, File Storage & Backup as a Service
hosted in EXEO-operated data centers.
What is EXEO Sovereign Cloud
EXEO Sovereign Cloud is a fully managed cloud platform operated exclusively across EXEO-owned data centers in Paris (France), Beirut, and Kesrouan (Lebanon). Unlike hyperscaler infrastructure, it is built for organizations that require data residency, regulatory compliance, or operational sovereignty with no dependency on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
The platform delivers five managed services: virtual machine hosting (IaaS), Managed Kubernetes, File Storage as a Service, Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), and Backup as a Service — all operated 24×7 by EXEO engineers.
Benefits of EXEO Sovereign Cloud
Enterprise virtual machine hosting services have become increasingly popular in recent years and for a good reason. This technology offers a wide range of benefits to businesses of all sizes, including:
Savings
By using virtual machine hosting, your business can avoid the high costs associated with purchasing and maintaining physical hardware. Instead, you can simply rent the virtual machines you need from a hosting provider such as Exeo, paying only for the resources you use.
Performance
By isolating each virtual machine from the others, each VM has the resources it needs to perform at its best. VMs get 10Gbps local connectivity and our backbone runs on 40Gbps
Security
By isolating each virtual machine from the others, risk of a security breach affecting multiple VMs is reduced.
Flexibility
By leveraging the power of cloud computing, businesses can quickly and easily scale their computing resources up or down as needed without the need for significant investments in new hardware. This allows businesses to stay competitive and responsive to changing market conditions while also minimizing costs and reducing risk.
Scalability
Easily add or remove VMs as needed and get the scalability needed to grow the business.

Cloud Service Provider Hosting Services FAQ
Where is my data stored?
Your data is hosted exclusively in EXEO-operated data centers in Paris (France), Beirut, and Kesrouan (Lebanon). No data is processed or stored on hyperscaler infrastructure. You choose which site or combination of sites your workloads run on.
How does EXEO Sovereign Cloud compare to AWS or Azure for compliance?
Hyperscalers operate under US jurisdiction, which can create compliance exposure for regulated industries under GDPR, French data sovereignty requirements, or Lebanese data residency obligations. EXEO Sovereign Cloud keeps your data within a defined, auditable perimeter operated by a single European-headquartered entity, certified ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27701, and SOC-2 Type 2.
What SLAs apply?
All services are covered by SLA-backed availability commitments with 24×7 monitoring and incident response by EXEO engineers. Specific SLA terms are provided per service in your service agreement.
Can I combine multiple services on the same platform?
Yes. IaaS, Managed Kubernetes, VDI, File Storage, and Backup as a Service all run on the same sovereign infrastructure and can be combined in a single managed environment. This avoids the complexity and cost of managing multiple providers.
Is the underlying cloud stack itself sovereign?
Yes. The virtualization and orchestration layer is built on European-origin technology with no dependency on US-controlled hypervisor platforms. This is a key differentiator for clients pursuing SecNumCloud-aligned or equivalent sovereign cloud positioning.
