Capgemini has announced that its sovereignty-ready cloud and AI solutions now available through AWS European Sovereign Cloudan independent cloud located and operated in the EU. With this collaboration, the European clients of both companies will be able to meet their digital sovereignty requirements while addressing their modernization and innovation processes.
AWS European Sovereign Cloud expands the options available for customers with particularly demanding sovereignty needs. As for Capgemini, its extensive experience in regulated markets and large-scale business transformations makes it easier for its client companies to meet their needs regarding sovereignty requirements, designing cloud strategies that protect critical assets, reinforce resilience and enable sustainable growth.
By adopting a structured, risk-based approach from the outset with options like the one announced by Capgemini, companies can evaluate their sovereignty requirements and risk profiles before defining architectures or operating models.
This allows them to confidently make strategic decisions about the level of sovereign control, infrastructure and safeguards needed to protect critical assets. Capgemini is also already developing sector-specific sovereign solutions on AWS European Sovereign Cloud, with the aim of accelerating its adoption in regulated sectors.
Together, Capgemini and AWS enable EU organizations to modernize critical workloads with dedicated operations within the region and strong data flow controls. They will also strengthen regulatory compliance and reduce regulatory exposure, in addition to improving the resilience of mission-critical applications and innovating in environments in line with the principles of sovereignty without losing full control of the organization. Finally, this collaboration between both companies allows their clients to align long-term cloud strategies with sectoral and national sovereignty objectives.
