How we support you.
We offer Sovereign Private Cloud Solutions for companies that want to operate their data in the cloud in a Swiss DPA and GDPR-compliant, fully controllable and independent manner – with clear governance and managed hosting in certified Swiss data centres.
Our services are aimed at IT decision-makers who want to create digital sovereignty, define access controls and securely fulfil regulatory requirements. Whether in pure Private Cloud environments or as a sovereign component within hybrid architectures – we create the basis for legally compliant, managed cloud infrastructures, maximum data sovereignty and secure operating models.
We provide Sovereign Private Cloud platforms and operate them as a managed environment in certified Swiss data centres - client-separated, Swiss DPA- and GDPR-compliant and fully controllable. In this way, we create the technical basis for data sovereignty, digital independence and legally compliant cloud provision - ideal for sensitive workloads and regulated industries.
We migrate existing systems from on-prem, public or hybrid environments to Managed Private Cloud infrastructures. The transition follows a standardised and established 5-step model - from inventory analysis, planning and site connection to server migration and network separation. Regulatory requirements, security guidelines and technical dependencies are systematically taken into account - for an audit-proof, clearly documented and operationally secure migration to Sovereign Cloud environments.
We implement centrally managed Identity & Access Management concepts with role-based authorisations (RBAC), federated identities and seamless access tracking. This allows you to retain control over all access - in compliance with ISO, Swiss DPA, GDPR and industry-specific security standards.
With policy-as-code approaches based on Terraform, OPA or Bicep, we establish enforceable governance guidelines that we integrate into your Managed Private Cloud. The policies are audit-proof, consistently documented and effective across all sovereign components.
In our Managed Cloud environment, we ensure the continuous monitoring of all operating parameters - including real-time monitoring, audit trail and log analyses. The logs can be integrated into existing SIEM or compliance systems and fulfil the highest security and traceability standards.
We integrate encryption-based protection mechanisms into your Managed Cloud environment - with HSM, KMS and role-based access to cryptographic keys. This keeps sensitive data secure at every stage - regardless of storage location, application or access path.
We enable the connection of Managed Private Cloud structures to on-prem environments or federated cloud models - GAIA-X-compatible, secure and controllable. This allows you to remain flexible in terms of architecture without compromising on governance, compliance or data sovereignty.
Your IT Transformation starts here.

FAQ
Do you have questions about Private & Sovereign Cloud Solutions?
In our FAQ you will find concise answers to key topics relating to digital sovereignty and legally compliant cloud operation.
Still have questions?
A Sovereign Cloud is a legally and technically controllable cloud infrastructure that is operated entirely within a defined legal area, e.g. Switzerland. It is usually based on private cloud architectures with a client-separated structure and guarantees full data sovereignty, Swiss DPA and GDPR compliance and protection against access by third countries such as the US CLOUD Act. Sovereign Cloud Solutions fulfil the highest requirements for governance, compliance and digital sovereignty - ideal for companies with sensitive data or regulatory obligations.
The physical storage location alone is not sufficient. Many international public cloud providers are subject to laws such as the US CLOUD Act – even if data is stored in Switzerland or Europe. True digital sovereignty requires that the entire technology stack – including the control plane, key management, and orchestration – is operated entirely within legal jurisdictions that comply with the Swiss Data Protection Act (DPA) as well as the GDPR.
Private & Sovereign Cloud Solutions address exactly this need: They ensure compliance with Swiss law, guarantee data sovereignty, and protect against unauthorized access from outside Europe and Switzerland.
Sovereign Cloud Solutions are particularly relevant for companies with high data protection requirements, regulatory compliance or industry-specific security requirements - e.g. in finance, healthcare, public administration or critical infrastructures. Medium-sized companies also benefit if they rely on Swiss DPA- and GDPR-compliant, auditable and independently operated cloud environments.
Yes - especially for companies with constant loads, sensitive data and high compliance requirements. Although Public Cloud offerings are often cheaper in the initial phase, Private & Sovereign Cloud Solutions offer clear economic advantages in the medium to long term: predictable operating costs (TCO), no egress fees, stable governance and reduced dependencies.
A practical example:
A medium-sized company with 400 users, sensitive financial data and 24/7 availability operates its infrastructure in a Managed Private Cloud. Over a period of five years, the TCO there is lower than in the public cloud - thanks to fixed resources, no additional costs for data traffic and clearly defined responsibilities for security and operation, among other things.
Private & Sovereign Cloud models therefore make economic sense - especially when long-term stability, legal certainty and operational control are crucial.
Yes - Sovereign Cloud Solutions can be seamlessly integrated into existing IT landscapes. Whether as an extension to on-prem systems or as part of hybrid architectures: with standardised interfaces, interoperability based on OpenStack or Kubernetes and clearly defined governance structures, Private & Sovereign Cloud Solutions enable a controlled, gradual transition - without lock-in effects and with full transparency regarding data flows and access.
