Introducing AWS European Sovereign Cloud: Data sovereignty from AWS as an opportunity for increased cyber resilience

We will introduce to you in the webinar: New AWS European Sovereign Cloud (ESC) was officially launched in January 15, 2026, by AWS in Potsdam. The fully sovereign cloud region ESC– what marks the unique selling point of this AWS Cloud – is now available with all AWS Services to European customers.

The launch of AWS European Sovereign Cloud on January 15, 2026, offers companies and organizations in Europe the opportunity to leverage the services of one of the most successful hyperscalers to make their businesses more resilient without compromising data sovereignty.

What distinguishes AWS European Sovereign Cloud from AWS?

AWS European Sovereign Cloud represents a cloud infrastructure that is physically and logically separate from the AWS infrastructure. For European companies that want to use AWS but have previously hesitated due to concerns about data control and governance sovereignty, its EU-based components offer an alternative to AWS.

AWS ESC is particularly attractive for organizations in the public sector and highly regulated industries: Technical controls prevent access to data from outside the EU. This provides guarantees of data residency, enabling operational autonomy and compliance with regulatory requirements. And all this with the broad range of AWS services that are familiar from AWS.

Agenda

  • Introduction
  • Presentation of AWS ESC: Data sovereignty, features, and services
  • Cyber ​​Resilience with AWS ESC: Use cases such as automated recovery testing, failover to the cloud, and resilient backup of AWS workloads
  • Comparison with providers in German-speaking countries

Featuring: TD SYNNEX – official AWS partner in Germany

We are delighted that our long-standing training partner, TD SYNNEX DACH, is joining us as the official ‘Distri Launch Partner’ for the AWS European Sovereign Cloud in Germany to co-host this webinar.

Who should attend this webinar?

ESC is primarily aimed at highly regulated organizations (such as those subject to NIS2, Dora, etc.) like critical infrastructure (KRITIS), public administration, or governmental organizations that, for the reasons mentioned above, have either waited to adopt the cloud or are already in the cloud.
