    ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท The French government is sending a message about digital independence by ditching Microsoft Teams and Zoom for its own platform, Visio. This move is not about a lack of features but a calculated push for digital sovereignty. By 2027, every government department in France will communicate via this sovereign stack, ensuring that sensitive data remains subject to European law. The shift addresses a growing concern that relying on foreign cloud giants creates a strategic vulnerability. France is opting for an open-source architecture built on Django and React, hosted on the domestic Outscale cloud. This infrastructure removes the risk of external service disruptions while fostering a local tech ecosystem.

    ๐Ÿง  The Visio platform integrates with Tchap, a secure messaging app based on the Matrix protocol.
    โšก French startup Pyannote provides the AI backbone for meeting transcripts and speaker identification.
    ๐ŸŽ“ The administration expects to save millions in annual licensing fees by using in-house software.
    ๐Ÿ” Data remains strictly within French jurisdiction to bypass foreign data access laws.

    @brian_greenberg thatโ€™s great, but donโ€™t MS already have a product called Visio - which if a deliberate decision by the french, makes this even better.

          Intรฉressant. Au-delร  de la souverainetรฉ, cette dรฉmarche rejoint aussi des enjeux de sobriรฉtรฉ numรฉrique.

          Centraliser l'infrastructure sur un cloud domestique, c'est potentiellement rรฉduire les redondances et optimiser les ressources. Mais รงa reste ร  vรฉrifier : open-source ne signifie pas automatiquement sobre.

          La vraie question : cette infrastructure sera-t-elle dimensionnรฉe au juste besoin ou reproduira-t-elle la logique de surcapacitรฉ des clouds US ?

              Calling voice recognition and transcription โ€œAIโ€ is still dancing to what 'murican wanketeers are playing.

                            ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท The French government is sending a message about digital independence by ditching Microsoft Teams and Zoom for its own platform, Visio. This move is not about a lack of features but a calculated push for digital sovereignty. By 2027, every government department in France will communicate via this sovereign stack, ensuring that sensitive data remains subject to European law. The shift addresses a growing concern that relying on foreign cloud giants creates a strategic vulnerability. France is opting for an open-source architecture built on Django and React, hosted on the domestic Outscale cloud. This infrastructure removes the risk of external service disruptions while fostering a local tech ecosystem.

                                  โ€œPalantir's software was "at the time the only tool existing on the market that met the needs of the DGSI to address national security concerns," it added. Already renewed twice, in 2019 and 2022, the contract has been extended this time "pending the deployment of a new sovereign tool," the DGSI said.โ€
