Finally, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and SAP unveiled plans to make SAP Sovereign Cloud capabilities available on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, a new independent cloud for Europe backed by a planned 7.8 billion Euro investment from Amazon. The collaboration builds on the companies’ longstanding partnership and will focus on uniting their capabilities and SAP’s deep enterprise expertise with AWS infrastructure and operational expertise. To meet customers’ evolving digital sovereignty needs across Europe.
