Scaleway, Europe's leading cloud provider, and Fujitsu, a global leader in high performance computing, today announced a strategic collaboration to explore CPU-based AI inference as a sustainable and sovereign option for European organizations. By combining Fujitsu's advanced processor research with Scaleway's European cloud expertise, the two companies aim to evaluate new ways to support efficient, responsible and secure AI deployment at scale.

Europe's rapid adoption of AI has increased demand for infrastructures that reconcile performance, energy efficiency and data sovereignty. Many organizations now operate AI models continuously in production and require predictable performance, controlled operating costs and a reduced environmental footprint. CPU-based architectures are particularly well suited to these requirements as they offer stable performance, efficient energy use and simple integration within existing environments. MONAKA has been designed for this purpose and to complement the AI systems already used within Europe.
