ZaveIT teams with StonesThro and Zadara on UK sovereign cloud push

ZaveIT has partnered with StonesThro and Zadara to make sovereign cloud services easier to buy and manage for UK public sector organisations. The collaboration ties StonesThro’s G-Cloud 15 position to ZaveIT’s service commerce platform and Zadara’s cloud infrastructure.

Why it matters: - The partnership aims to simplify how UK public sector buyers discover, order and manage sovereign cloud services. - The collaboration combines cloud infrastructure, local delivery and commercial tooling in one offering for a regulated market. - ZaveIT’s move adds another UK market foothold as sovereign cloud and AI infrastructure demand grows.

What happened: - Norwegian software company ZaveIT announced a strategic collaboration with UK-based sovereign cloud provider StonesThro and cloud infrastructure specialist Zadara. - The announcement came after StonesThro was selected for the UK Government’s G-Cloud 15 framework across Lots 1, 2 and 3. - The framework coverage includes cloud hosting, cloud software and cloud support services. - Zadara supplies the cloud technology. - StonesThro delivers sovereign cloud services in the UK. - ZaveIT provides the commercial platform to package, sell and manage those services.

The details: - ZaveIT’s platform will let StonesThro place its Zadara-powered services into a digital service catalogue. - Public sector customers and channel partners can use the catalogue to explore services, place orders and manage subscriptions. - The collaboration covers cloud infrastructure, storage, Kubernetes, AI-ready infrastructure and managed cloud services. - The setup is designed to reduce manual work in commercial service delivery. - ZaveIT says the model supports simpler access to cloud services without losing control, flexibility or local delivery. - The companies say the offering is aimed at public sector organisations that need sovereign cloud capabilities.

Between the lines: - The partnership reflects a broader shift in cloud buying: technical capability alone is not enough if procurement and management remain complicated. - ZaveIT is positioning itself as the layer that turns cloud infrastructure into a sellable and manageable service. - StonesThro gets a faster route from framework access to usable procurement flows. - For Zadara, the deal extends the reach of its sovereign and distributed cloud infrastructure through a UK public sector channel.

What's next: - The companies will use the collaboration to expand access to cloud services for UK public sector and commercial buyers. - ZaveIT is expected to keep growing its presence in the UK market. - The three companies plan to target complex, regulated environments where sovereign cloud requirements are increasing.

The bottom line: - The partnership is built to make sovereign cloud easier to buy, sell and manage, not just easier to deploy.
