How cloud computing from Europe secures your digital sovereignty
Not all clouds are the same: cloud computing from Europe - like Anexia - stands for digital sovereignty, resilience and full control. Independent, secure and compliant with EU standards.
Cloud computing from Europe offers more than just computing power: it creates digital sovereignty and ensures users' independence from geopolitical risks and dependencies.
Digital sovereignty is currently a buzzword on everyone's lips. It means that a company or institution can act independently and self-determinedly in the digital world. This includes complete control over their own data and digital infrastructure, guaranteed compliance with European standards and regulatory requirements such as the GDPR, as well as protection against geopolitical influences from third countries.
A company that is digitally sovereign is in a stable and resilient position for any future development. Geopolitical developments cannot affect it. Such a company has a clear competitive advantage - because it stands for long-term security and independence. Digital sovereignty means creative freedom without worries.
The cloud infrastructure is an essential component of every company's digital sovereignty. Only those who rely on independent cloud computing from Europe are truly sovereign.
Essential elements of a sovereign cloud
Local data centers on European soil
If you choose the wrong provider, you run the risk of governments and authorities in other countries being able to access them - even if they are physically stored in Europe. Laws such as the US CLOUD Act make this possible. For example, the US president can order all American cloud companies to shut down their data centers in Europe with a single decree. The same applies to numerous other third countries. Simple sanctions could hold a large part of Europe's digital infrastructure hostage.
The alternative: local data centers operated by European companies in Europe. Only the European legal system applies to them - the CLOUD Act, for example, has no power here. This means that all data is actually safe from influences from third countries. As a European cloud provider, Anexia follows precisely this principle. This means operational resilience and digital sovereignty for all Anexia customers.
Freedom for customers instead of vendor lock-in
Many companies and institutions in Europe rely on solutions from large non-European tech companies in their day-to-day operations. What appears practical at first glance often harbors hidden risks: These large companies try to bind customers to them as much as possible. This creates dependencies on individual service providers: in the form of price increases, service cuts, etc.
Anexia's European cloud, on the other hand, has no hidden dependencies, no license traps and no vendor lock-in - because it is based on open source. Open source technologies mean: no ties to individual providers, but full transparency and control for users. At the same time, customers benefit from the ability to adapt solutions precisely to their needs.
European legal compliance
In Europe, the digital space is strictly regulated - just think of end-to-end encryption or the GDPR, which requires features such as tracking and cookies to be disclosed.
In line with these regulations, the European cloud not only offers special transparency - you know where your data is located at all times and manage access yourself - but also special security: with the European cloud, you can rest assured that all services are 100% tailored to European rules. With the European cloud, you can be sure that you are not violating any EU legal provisions.
