Control without compromise: AWS European Sovereign Cloud
summary
AWS announces a net new independent infrastructure called AWS European Sovereign Cloud with the first region in Brandenburg Germany and a targeted launch at the end of 2025. It replicates commercial-region APIs, uses Multi‑AZ Nitro architecture, and enforces customer-created metadata stays in partition with separate IAM and billing. Day‑to‑day operations and support are performed by operations by EU residents. AWS commits a 7.8 billion euro investment, positions the offering for public sector and regulated workloads, and aims to avoid capability tradeoffs.
