The right choice for
your critical data

Damien Desanti, fondateur de Phocea DC
Our conviction

“The PHOCEA DC project is not about stacking up megawatts. It will demonstrate, site after site, that a data center can be located in the middle of a city without burdening it: by rehabilitating disused land, distributing its heat to residents and industries, and ensuring data sovereignty for the companies and facilities that drive the local economy. It has been our DNA since day one.”

Finally, a 100% French data center in Marseille. I have no regrets about migrating my servers to this data center, with its latest technologies, tightly controlled access security and, above all, such a low PUE. The Phocea team really listens to us and was there to make sure the migration and installation of my equipment went as smoothly as possible.
