Sovereign Cloud Stack
The Sovereign Cloud Stack (SCS) is a European initiative that creates an open, transparent and vendor-neutral cloud ecosystem that ensures sovereignty and interoperability. The focus is on cloud technology with genuine freedom of choice: legally secure, interoperable, vendor-independent and cloud-native.
The certifiable SCS standards are developed openly, collaboratively and in line with requirements. In a continuous process, the community creates a reliable framework for secure cloud infrastructures.
The modular software stack provides an open-source reference implementation, demonstrating how a sovereign cloud works in practice. The software stack is based on proven projects such as OpenStack and Kubernetes, is developed by the community and, with its reference implementation, offers a turnkey basis for your own cloud infrastructures.
A clear central goal of SCS is to promote skills and knowledge. Open collaboration, documentation and exchange create a culture in which skills, experience and innovation are shared.
