A preliminary Franco-German agreement would combine Bull’s computing hardware with STACKIT’s cloud services under European jurisdiction.
Bull and Germany’s Schwarz Digits signed a memorandum of understanding on November 3 to develop AI and cloud infrastructure for organisations seeking European data jurisdiction. It links Bull’s high-performance computing and manufacturing capabilities with STACKIT, the cloud business of the Schwarz group.
The partners describe planned work spanning servers, software and enterprise services, including Bull’s Angers factory and liquid-cooling experience. Further proposals include servers based on Open Compute Project standards, SAP RISE support and possible quantum-computing work.
Financial terms, general availability and pricing were not disclosed. This is a preliminary agreement, not a completed cloud launch or a claim that all components are European-made.
