European Clouds vs. Hyperscalers: Can You Really Build a Sovereign Data Platform?

 

US cloud providers dominate the market, but at what cost? Between rising prices, GDPR risks, and shifting geopolitical alliances, European data leaders are rethinking their cloud strategy.

In this first episode of our series on digital sovereignty, we explore whether European cloud providers like Ionos, Scaleway, and OVHcloud can be real, enterprise-grade alternative.

We’ll define what a portable data platform looks like, share insights from hands-on experience, and discuss the non-functional and legal trade-offs for European organizations.

 


Key Questions We’ll Explore

  • What is a sovereign data platform and why should you care?
  • Do EU clouds offer the primitives and tooling you need?
  • Comparison with the hyperscalers: cost, performance, ease of use?
  • Where do the risks lie: legal, technical, geopolitical?
  • What workloads should you migrate now, which should stay?
