“Amazon’s AWS launched a new cloud service located entirely in Europe on Thursday, addressing user concerns about the data security delivered by mainly U.S.-based providers by offering the continent’s own independent alternative. The AWS European Sovereign Cloud’s data centres are physically and legally separate from the U.S.-based company’s other servers, the world’s largest cloud provider said. This will allow the cloud to operate even if the European Union were disconnected from the internet or the United States were to prohibit software exports, AWS Germany Chief Technology Officer Michael Hanisch told Reuters.” (01/15/26)
