european cloud sovereignty needs more than labels — it needs real portability
There’s a growing conversation in Europe about digital sovereignty — and it’s more than justified. Recent articles like Why cloud licenses matter, shared by Interoperable Europe, underline how governance, licensing models, and open source control directly affect our ability to stay digitally independent.
But here’s the thing: beyond governance and legal frameworks, what really matters is how easily you can move your infrastructure if needed. That’s where most cloud strategies fall short.
And it’s exactly where LayerOps comes in — offering something truly different.
compliance is not sovereignty
A lot of vendors talk about sovereignty. They mention local data centers, EU-based infrastructure, or fancy certifications. And yes — these things are important.
But true sovereignty starts when you can leave.
If switching providers means rewriting your infrastructure from scratch, managing new Terraform stacks, dealing with DNS updates, and spending weeks redeploying services — you’re not sovereign. You’re locked in.
LayerOps brings european cloud players together
LayerOps is the first platform that unifies multiple European cloud providers into a single, portable environment. It supports players like OVHcloud, Scaleway, Exoscale, Infomaniak, and Outscale, as well as your own on-premises servers.
It lets you:
- deploy services across multiple providers with just a few clicks
- automatically failover in case of downtime
- monitor costs and optimize infrastructure without dealing with Kubernetes or Terraform
- and stay fully portable — no vendor lock-in, ever.
resilience requires hybrid thinking
Let’s be honest: resilience is sovereignty’s best friend.
If your services are tied to one region or one vendor, you're vulnerable. LayerOps solves this by enabling hybrid deployments, where you can combine cloud resources and physical infrastructure, and still manage everything in one dashboard — without needing a DevOps team.
It’s not just for experts. It’s made to be accessible.
the only european CaaS platform built for sovereignty
LayerOps isn’t just another cloud tool. It’s a new way of thinking about cloud operations — one that respects your freedom to choose, move, and scale.
In a time when:
- hyperscalers dominate key open source projects,
- prices and terms change overnight,
- and geopolitical pressure reshapes the tech landscape...
We need practical solutions, not just political ambitions.
LayerOps is already making that vision a reality.
