Atos has announced the launch of Atos Sovereign Cloud, a next-generation platform for application orchestration and modernization, designed for public administrations, defense organizations, healthcare providers, critical infrastructure operators and other entities subject to strict regulatory requirements.
Atos Sovereign Cloud combines the capabilities of an enterprise cloud platform with a comprehensive set of sovereignty controls for data management, operational independence, cyber resilience and AI-based innovation. The solution enables organizations to maintain full control over their data, applications and digital operations, while accelerating their digital transformation.
This new service is part of the Atos Group’s digital sovereignty strategy, which integrates capabilities for mission-critical environments, security integrated by design and sovereign digital infrastructures as fundamental principles of its entire technological offer.
A response to the growing demand for digital sovereignty
Digital technologies today constitute the basis of the activity of most organizations. However, growing geopolitical uncertainty is putting severe pressure on supply chains and raising concerns about the continuity of services. At the same time, regulatory requirements are becoming more demanding and demand for sovereign technology services continues to grow.
According to technology consultancy Gartner, more than 50% of multinational organizations will have a digital sovereignty strategy in 2029, compared to less than 10% today.
In this context, public administrations and organizations responsible for critical infrastructure are looking for trusted cloud platforms that protect sensitive information, reduce dependence on external providers and strengthen their resilience against cyber threats and geopolitical risks.
A sovereign cloud platform designed to ensure control
Atos Sovereign Cloud responds to these challenges by integrating Atos’ expertise in cloud transformation, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence infrastructure and managed services into a sovereign cloud platform designed and developed entirely in the European Union.
Thanks to its digital sovereignty consulting methodology, Atos Amplify Advisory services help clients identify the best way to respond to their regulatory and sovereignty needs, finding the right balance between control of their digital assets, innovation capacity, technological complexity and costs.
The platform allows you to modernize mission-critical applications while maintaining control over data, operations, the technological supply chain and regulatory compliance, incorporating advanced security mechanisms as a central element of its architecture.
Designed to guarantee security, resilience and innovation
Atos Sovereign Cloud has been conceived with the principles of digital sovereignty as the central axis of its architecture. Its components are based on open source technologies, favoring the portability of the applications and the flexibility of the platform.
Customers have a fully hosted, operated and contracted environment within the European Union – or in other Atos locations where required. Its architecture supports different deployment models adapted to regional regulations and incorporates advanced cybersecurity controls to protect critical systems.
The platform also incorporates a catalog of services that facilitates access to Atos solutions, those of its trusted technology partners and customer repositories, all within a secure, controlled and transparent ecosystem.
Driving digital autonomy
Atos Sovereign Cloud helps organizations meet digital sovereignty and regulatory compliance requirements while reducing operational risks from third-party dependency.
The platform provides greater control over sensitive data and critical workloads, improves organizational resilience, and delivers a cloud operating model ready to accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence and develop future innovation initiatives.
Available to customers from 2026, Atos Sovereign Cloud is a trusted European alternative for organizations looking to modernize their technology infrastructures without compromising security, compliance or operational independence.
Punit Sehgal, Head of Atos for Belgium, the Netherlands and the Nordic Countries (BNN), says: “Across Europe, public administrations and highly regulated organizations need trusted cloud environments that allow them to modernize their critical applications without giving up control, regulatory compliance and operational resilience. With Atos Sovereign Cloud, designed and developed in the European Union, we bring together our expertise in cloud technologies, cybersecurity, infrastructure for artificial intelligence and managed services to offer a platform of sovereign cloud that helps European organizations maintain control over their data, operations and technology supply chain, while continuing to innovate with confidence.
Atos Sovereign Cloud helps organizations meet digital sovereignty and regulatory compliance requirements
Michael Kollar, Global Head of Digital Sovereignty at the Atos Group and Director of Cloud & Modern Infrastructure and Digital Workplace, adds that “digital sovereignty has ceased to be an exclusively regional issue and has become a strategic priority for organizations around the world. Managing technological dependencies, exposure to different jurisdictions and risks of business interruption is today an essential challenge in increasingly complex digital environments. Atos Sovereign Cloud is fully aligned with the Atos Group’s global digital sovereignty strategy and offers “We give our clients a practical way to apply sovereignty controls over their most critical workloads, while preserving flexibility, resilience and the ability to safely innovate, including through the use of artificial intelligence, in different geographic and regulatory contexts.”
