SAP and AWS Announce European Sovereign Cloud Collaboration
SAP and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have announced plans to bring SAP Sovereign Cloud capabilities to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, according to a recent press release from SAP.
The collaboration will combine SAP's security-hardened cloud solutions with AWS infrastructure, designed to meet digital sovereignty requirements for highly regulated industries and governments across Europe. SAP reports that the AWS European Sovereign Cloud will launch its first region in Brandenburg, Germany by the end of 2025.
SAP states that their Sovereign Cloud capabilities are already available on AWS in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Canada and India. The initial European offering will include SAP Business Technology Platform and SAP Cloud ERP.
Thomas Saueressig, Member of the Executive Board at SAP, commented that the collaboration enables customers to "harness the full power of cloud innovation and AI" whilst deploying their sovereign cloud portfolio on AWS's European infrastructure.
