Scaleway added as Hugging Face Inference Provider with serverless access to open-weight models
AI Impact Summary
Scaleway is now an official Inference Provider on the Hugging Face Hub, expanding serverless inference access to models such as gpt-oss, Qwen3, DeepSeek R1, and Gemma 3. It introduces two routing modes—direct key usage to Scaleway or HF-managed routing—affecting how you manage keys, monitoring, and billing. With European data-center presence (Paris) and pricing starting at €0.20 per million tokens, this can improve latency for EU workloads while offering predictable costs; teams should evaluate model compatibility, key-management strategies, and which billing path (provider vs HF) best fits their use case.
