Eco-responsible datacentres for a more sustainable web

Web hostingGreen technologies
Digital technology today accounts for nearly 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and its environmental impact continues to grow with the increase in online usage, cloud computing, streaming, artificial intelligence, and connected services. In the face of these challenges, choosing eco-friendly web hosting becomes a concrete lever to reduce the carbon footprint of your website, applications, and digital services.

By opting for a committed provider like OVHcloud, you combine performance, reliability, and environmental responsibility. This, while contributing to a more sustainable web. Our data centres are indeed designed to optimise the energy consumption of servers and limit their impact on the environment.

Thanks to infrastructures designed for energy efficiency, the use of renewable energies, and water cooling systems, we reduce 
 significantly the electricity needs related to the operation and cooling of equipment. This approach therefore allows for a more responsible web hosting service, without compromising on the availability, security, or performance of cloud services.
However, ecological web hosting is not limited to supplying data centres with green energy. It also relies on a more sustainable management of resources, improved efficiency of infrastructures, optimisation of the lifecycle of equipment, and a continuous effort to reduce carbon emissions. For businesses, this approach represents a strategic advantage. It indeed allows for hosting a website or a digital platform in a high-performance environment, while reinforcing CSR commitments and responding to the growing expectations of clients regarding digital sobriety, transparency, and environmental protection.

A technological innovation serving your impact

renewable energyEnergy efficiency
Reducing the environmental impact of digital technology involves concrete technological choices, starting from the design of infrastructures. At OVHcloud, this approach is based on complete control of the production chain, from the design of servers to the operation of data centres. This integration allows for the optimisation of each stage of the lifecycle of equipment, limiting energy consumption, extending the lifespan of hardware, and reducing the carbon footprint associated with cloud services and web hosting.

Energy efficiency is at the heart of this approach. Our servers benefit from a patented cooling system, designed to cool infrastructures more responsibly than traditional air conditioning. This technology allows for the use of up to 90% less water, while maintaining a high level of performance, stability, and availability for hosted websites, applications, and platforms.

By limiting the needs for traditional cooling, OVHcloud contributes to reducing the electrical consumption of data centres and providing ecological web hosting tailored to the requirements of businesses. This approach is part of a comprehensive strategy for digital sobriety, combining innovation, energy efficiency, and a reduction in carbon emissions. By choosing OVHcloud as an eco-friendly web host, businesses benefit from a high-performance and responsible cloud infrastructure, capable of supporting their development while reinforcing their CSR commitments and their contribution to a more sustainable web.

The circular economy, a pillar of our commitment

RecyclingSustainability
At OVHcloud, sustainability is not limited to the energy efficiency of data centres. It is part of a holistic approach to the circular economy, designed to reduce the environmental impact of web hosting at every stage of the infrastructure lifecycle. 

From the design of servers to their maintenance, including their reuse and the recycling of end-of-life components, every action aims to preserve resources, limit electronic waste, and thus reduce the carbon footprint of digital technology. This strategy is based in particular on extending the lifespan of servers and on responsible management of IT equipment. Rather than systematically replacing equipment, OVHcloud prioritises repair, reuse, and gradual upgrading of infrastructures whenever possible. Our modular data centres thus allow for the adaptation of hosting capacities and cloud performance to the needs of our clients, while avoiding resource waste and unnecessary waste production.

By integrating the circular economy at the heart of our model, we offer eco-friendly web hosting capable of combining performance, reliability, and environmental responsibility. This approach contributes to a more sustainable web, while allowing businesses to host their websites, applications, and digital services on a cloud infrastructure designed to limit resource consumption, optimise the lifecycle of equipment, and support their CSR commitments without compromising on service quality.
