Lyon, the third-largest city in France, is transitioning away from Microsoft’s Office suite in favor of OnlyOffice, aiming to diminish reliance on American software while adopting Linux and PostgreSQL. This move is driven by a desire for technological sovereignty and to minimize environmental impacts through extended hardware lifespans. In parallel, Lyon will also implement 'Territoire Numerique Ouvert' for digital collaboration. This initiative is part of a larger European movement toward independent digital capabilities, highlighted by similar actions from other European entities.
Lyon plans to adopt Linux and PostgreSQL, replacing Microsoft Office with OnlyOffice to reduce dependence on American software and enhance technological sovereignty.
The decision comes amidst a broader European trend towards developing sovereign digital capabilities and reducing reliance on major American tech companies.
