Description

We curate most relevant posts about Cloud Insights on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.

This edition provides an extensive overview on the growing global emphasis on sovereign cloud strategies and the associated issues of digital sovereignty, especially in Europe, Germany, and the UAE. Several updates highlight the launch and expansion of regional sovereign cloud initiatives by major players like AWS, Oracle, and SAP, often in collaboration with local providers to ensure data residency and compliance. A significant secondary theme is the critical importance of cloud resilience and multi-cloud strategies, spurred by a widespread AWS US-East-1 outage which disrupted major services and underscored the risks of single-region dependency. Furthermore, sources touch upon the integration of AI into sovereign and hybrid cloud environments and includes actionable advice on managing cloud costs (FinOps) and maintaining security through practices like cleaning up resources and ensuring proper backup.
