Claranet is a European managed IT services provider (MSP/MSSP) founded in 1996 that sells cloud, colocation, hosting, networks, and cybersecurity services to business customers, operating a network of data centres across seven-plus countries in Europe plus Brazil, India and a US presence. As of company statements from its Spanish operating unit, Claranet has run around 43 data centres across markets including Spain, the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and Portugal, tied together by a pan-European MPLS fibre backbone. Unlike hyperscale cloud providers, Claranet’s model centres on local, in-country data centres and a hands-on ‘operator’ identity — the company describes itself as running the infrastructure it designs 24×7 rather than simply delivering projects, and it has built its footprint substantially through dozens of acquisitions of local hosting and managed-services businesses across Europe since the late 1990s.
Claranet operates as a cloud provider and colocation provider, with facilities at the following locations:

Common Questions
Does Claranet have its own data centres, or does it just resell space from others?
Claranet operates a mix: it has run its own branded data centres in multiple countries (e.g., Barcelona, Lisbon, Maia, Frankfurt, Eindhoven), while for at least some core UK infrastructure it leases private space and power inside a third-party facility — for example a 2023 agreement saw Claranet take a minimum of 284 sqm and 500kW inside EXA Infrastructure's Hoddesdon facility in the UK.
In how many countries does Claranet operate physical data centres?
Claranet's own Spanish-market site has stated it operates roughly 43 data centres across seven European countries — Spain, the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and Portugal — and the group also has facilities/operations in Brazil and India.
Does Claranet offer AI or GPU-specific infrastructure?
No specific, sourced evidence was found of dedicated AI/GPU colocation or an AI-native cloud product from Claranet; its published AI activity (e.g., a French generative-AI platform called Clovis) centers on software/cloud AI services rather than named high-density GPU data centre infrastructure.
What kind of certifications do Claranet's data centres carry?
Claranet's Spanish operations page states that its facilities include Tier III and Tier IV certified data centres and comply with standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 20000, ISO 27001 and PCI DSS.
