DINUM (The Interministerial Directorate of Digital)
Scaleway and DINUM worked, during France’s first Covid-related lockdown, on a videoconferencing solution intended to be used on a large scale by the various state services, and in particular by the Ministry of Education. This open source solution, based on BigBlueButton and hosted by Scaleway, eventually became known as the Webinaire de l’Etat (State Webinar). It has enabled tens of thousands of people to communicate, at any distance, to discuss, work and collaborate.
Région Guadeloupe
“Scaleway allowed us to advance very quickly. Support teams are always available, either to allow us to unblock urgent situations, or to advise us on the latest innovations. It’s perfect; tailor-made for our needs.”
Henri Ferreira, Chargé de Projets Direction Générale, en charge de la Cyberdéfense et de l’Intelligence Territoriale, Région Guadeloupe (who moved his region’s infrastructure to Scaleway’s cloud in just 10 days, after it was hacked on-premise)
Sorbonne University
“With Scaleway Instances, we’re able to scale effortlessly. For now, we can go up to 8,000 users. If the project goes well and if Greenlight is used to its maximum capacity, we’ll be able to reach our threshold and, if necessary, easily expand to a bigger infrastructure. Data protection is vitally important to the university: with this solution, we knew that our data was safe and that our faculty members and students were able to share data securely. What we have been able to achieve with BigBlueButton would not have been possible with a competing foreign cloud provider.”
Fabrice Moutte, CIO of Sorbonne University
