We curate most relevant posts about Cloud Insights on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.
This edition provides a comprehensive overview of the current state and future direction of cloud computing, focusing heavily on digital sovereignty, resilience, and complex enterprise architectures, particularly for SAP systems. A major theme is the reaction to recent public cloud outages (AWS and Azure), which highlights the urgent need for multi-cloud, hybrid, and sovereign cloud strategies to mitigate dependency risks and ensure business continuity. The European Union’s new Cloud Sovereignty Framework is frequently discussed, establishing clear, measurable criteria (SEAL levels) for evaluating cloud providers based on factors like legal control, data jurisdiction, and supply chain transparency to ensure compliance and digital independence. Furthermore, the discussion extends to how factors like AI integration, cost predictability, and specific architectural choices (e.g., in SAP HANA) are driving the renewed strategic importance of private cloud and sovereign-ready architectures in regulated environments globally.
