In 2016, in order to meet the growing global demand for cloud infrastructure, OVH finalized a partnership with two leading global investment firms. KKR and TowerBrook Capital Partners acquired a minority stake in OVH for €250 million, with the Klaba family retaining its majority stake in the company and continuing, together with the management team, to lead OVH, its strategy and operations. New data centers were opened across the world, including two data centers in the US, at Vint Hill and Hillsboro, and two offices, in Reston and Dallas. Vcloud Air wasa acquired from VMware. The company expanded to Singapore and Australia in 2017 and India in 2018. In 2019, OVH becomes OVHcloud, affirming its leading position in the cloud market, and structuring its offer around four cloud categories to meet its customers' various needs and support their growth.

From 2010, OVHcloud entered into the world of cloud with a disruptive, high-performance offer - the Hosted Private Cloud. A Public Cloud offer followed. One year later, OVH was Europe's No.1 web hoster, with a VMware award for its Hosted Private Cloud. In 2012, the company opened offices and a datacenter in North America.

In 2004, OVH opened its first subsidiaries in Poland and Spain. Soon after, the company acquired a dilapidated industrial site in Roubaix, in the north of France, to host the its head office and first data centers. Octave's father Henryk, his mother Halina and his brother Miroslaw joined the company. The business continued to grow rapidly, systematically reinvesting profits to expand the business and stay independent. To meet the needs of more and more international customers, new offices opened in Germany, Italy, Portugal, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Ireland. The company was helping a growing community and a growing customer base. OVH deployed its own fiber-optic network to further strengthen its distinctive offer.
