Europe’s first operational sovereign disconnected cloud
Clarence is Europe’s first operational sovereign disconnected cloud, designed to combine the power of advanced cloud technologies, artificial intelligence, and full sovereignty within a fully isolated, secure, and legally protected environment.
Secure and truly
sovereign European
cloud
As the only truly “air-gapped” cloud of its kind in Europe, Clarence enables organizations to innovate without compromise, ensuring that sensitive data and critical operations remain entirely under control and shielded from external dependencies or geopolitical risks.
Clarence is a strategic partnership between LuxConnect (60%) and Proximus (40%), bringing together complementary expertise in LuxConnect highly secure Data Center infrastructure and advanced ICT and managed services. This collaboration was created to address the growing need for data sovereignty and secure AI development, offering a trusted European alternative for organizations operating in highly regulated or sensitive environments.
Built for the most demanding use cases, Clarence provides a fully sovereign, disconnected cloud platform initially powered by Google Cloud technologies, while progressively opening to European open-source solutions and third-party integrations. Its air-gapped architecture ensures there is no external network connection, eliminating exposure to cyber threats and extraterritorial regulations such as the Cloud Act. This guarantees full data residency, integrity, and confidentiality, alongside complete operational autonomy for each client on dedicated infrastructure.
Sovereign cloud
for secure artificial
intelligence
Hosted in LuxConnect Tier IV Data Centers in Luxembourg, Clarence delivers the highest levels of resilience, availability, and business continuity, even in crisis scenarios. The platform is optimized for advanced workloads, including artificial intelligence, enabling organizations to securely deploy and operate complex applications with high-performance computing capabilities, while maintaining full control over access, environments, and operations.
