Delos Cloud: why it is not sovereign: and Souvera offers real digital independence

Source: Golem.de: "Ministry of the Interior Baden-Württemberg: third-country access possible with Delos Cloud"

"Sovereign" on paper: but not in reality

When Delos Cloud was announced, it sounded like the great sovereign cloud for German administrations. But a closer look reveals: the sovereignty promise has limits.

The problem: third-country access

The Ministry of the Interior of Baden-Württemberg confirms that access by third countries is possible with Delos Cloud. The reason: the technology stack and corporate structures are not fully independent of US corporations.

What real sovereignty requires

• No US parent company: Only then is the US CLOUD Act excluded.
• German data centers: Data must reside exclusively in Germany.
• German law: No foreign law may reach the data.
• Own infrastructure: Dedicated systems instead of shared US platforms.

How Souvera does it right

Souvera Workspace meets all these criteria: German data centers, German law, no US parent company, a dedicated mail server per customer: and a fully integrated platform for email, office, files and video conferencing.

Conclusion

True sovereignty is not a marketing label: it is the result of technology and law. Souvera delivers what others only talk about.
