Clarence is Europe’s first fully disconnected sovereign cloud solution based in Luxembourg, designed to enhance data sovereignty for public and private entities managing sensitive information. Developed as a joint venture between LuxConnect, a Tier IV data center operator, and Proximus, an ICT services provider, Clarence addresses growing concerns over data security in public cloud environments, especially amid geopolitical tensions and rising cybercrime.

The cloud solution is completely isolated from the internet, ensuring maximum confidentiality and security for its users. Unlike traditional sovereign cloud offerings managed by major hyperscalers like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, Clarence is entirely managed and operated by Luxembourg entities, providing clients full control over their data without external visibility from providers.

The platform is built on a robust technology stack, benefiting from advanced tools, including those from Google, while maintaining operational independence. This allows organizations to utilize a comprehensive suite of resources for developing AI and other technology applications securely.

Clarence also serves as a strategic asset for international companies looking to expand in Europe, offering compliance with European regulations and integration into Luxembourg's cloud infrastructure. Overall, it aims to provide a reliable and secure environment for businesses to innovate and protect their sensitive data.
