Huawei Cloud France brings products and customer commitment to the fore at its inaugural summit
Huawei Cloud has used its first Cloud Summit in France to announce a series of products and services and emphasize the importance of France as a region within Huawei’s global cloud picture.
At Huawei Cloud Summit France, the firm made much of its new Flexus cloud services, offering out-of-the-box solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It also announced Huawei Cloud Stack 8.5 would be released in France, which brings over 120 hybrid cloud services for better performance across AI and intelligent transformation.
Attendees heard from customers such as The Explorers, a company that creates 8k footage of the natural world in partnership with UNESCO which sought Huawei Cloud’s data storage and management expertise.
ITPro spoke to Wanying Song, general manager at Huawei Cloud France, alongside Dafu Shi, director of marketing and solution sales at Huawei Cloud France, about the potential for Huawei Cloud France and what it saw as the main opportunities of the future.
“In the past, Huawei Cloud France merely cooperated with carriers to develop business with the carriers together,” said Song.
“Due to the huge potential of public cloud and private cloud, our company decided to have our own public cloud and permanent cloud business in France.”

Shi noted that Huawei Cloud France is excited to offer customers in France more choice over database and big data solutions, especially as firms in Europe look to make the most of AI investment and digital transformation.
“We are in an era of AI and we are facing a lot of changes and challenges in every new domain, so Huawei cannot be the only one to conquer the new challenges and use cases,” he said.
“We must also assemble our partners and let them build their solutions upon our platform, that’s another purpose of this event.”
Song also emphasized the importance of Huawei Cloud’s work with Station F, the world’s largest startup incubator which is based within Paris, on a new sustainability program. The pair worked on ensuring startups were given the right cloud resources, alongside mentorships and office space.
“We really believe every enterprise and every startup needs to have equal access to a dynamic business world and equal access to business opportunities,” said Song.
Huawei Cloud France is committed to bringing its digital expertise to France, both to its 500 local existing partners and to the large potential market throughout the region.
“I’m also a newcomer in France, but I really see there is a trend in France, a convergence of public cloud and private cloud,” said Song.
