He's talking about digital infrastructure: the hardware and software, data centres and communications networks that power modern business. It can cause problems when the data of European customers is stored in a US cloud service, as there can be a conflict between the laws that apply. "We don't want any foreign states to be able to access information stored by European customers or companies."The firm believes there's an opportunity to create what it calls Europe's first "sovereign hyperscale cloud".
Cloud computing firm Ionos already positions itself as the European alternative to US tech giants, out of the reach of the US Cloud Act. In addition the firm said: "AWS will challenge any law enforcement request for customer data from any governmental bodies where the request conflicts with EU law, is overbroad, or we otherwise have any appropriate grounds to do so."Ionos is among 377 organisations participating in the Gaia-X project, which aims to join up cloud service providers in a federated system, so data can move between them while data owners remain in control.
