AWS European Sovereign Cloud Region Launch - 2025

Amazon Web Services is launching a new Cloud Region in late 2025, operated by an independent European-operated business entity to support European Union organisations and governments that require a higher degree of isolation to address sovereignty concerns.

Akkodis is a European Sovereign Cloud Launch Partner

Akkodis is a launch partner with AWS for the European Sovereign Cloud Region. With multiple years of delivering critical government workloads around the world, we leverage our experience to deliver assessments, migration execution, and ongoing managed services for our clients.

The European Sovereign Cloud AWS Region addresses these concerns of organisations:

• Data sovereignty: All data and metadata (including billing, tagging) remains within the European Union
• Resilience: No system dependencies outside of Europe, including certificate authority chain of trusts
• Governance: All management, operations, and security performed exclusively by EU citizens

Information from AWS about the European Sovereign Cloud Region is available at https://aws.eu/.

The Akkodis difference

Akkodis has been architecting, implementing, and operating mission-critical, authoritative workloads for our public sector clients in the AWS Cloud across the USA, UK, and Australia continuously for more than 10 years.

Not only can Akkodis move to and operate your workload in the Cloud, we have the experience to anticipate the way the AWS Cloud is likely to modernize into the future. With that foresight, Akkodis can minimise Cloud costs and maximise agility.
