In almost every conversation I have with customers and partners across Europe, the same question comes up: How can we use cloud and AI while staying in control of our data, our operations and our compliance? Banks, public sector organizations and manufacturers all face growing requirements around data residency, regulation and digital resilience.
Microsoft Sovereign Cloud gives organizations a choice of where and how to run their workloads. That ranges from public cloud with sovereign controls to a sovereign private cloud on Azure Local, with AI running closer to where the data lives. Global scale. Local control.
Where to find me
Next to speaking with partners and some planned Theater sessions and panel discussions, I’m part of the Cloud & AI Expert Meet-up team at Ignite. The Expert Meet-up is the place to talk directly with Microsoft experts, ask questions and discuss the challenges you’re facing.
📍 The Hub, Level 0, Moscone North/South 🗓️ Thursday, November 19, 8:00–11:30 AM PT
Stop by if you want to talk about:
- Sovereign Cloud and digital sovereignty
- Azure Local and sovereign private cloud
- Running AI workloads in sovereign and disconnected environments
- Business continuity, resiliency and compliance (for example, DORA)
- Hybrid and multicloud management with Azure Arc
If that time doesn’t work for you, contact me on LinkedIn or X and we’ll find another time to meet during the week.
Can’t be there in person?
The keynotes and many sessions are free to watch online through the Ignite digital experience. Follow along here on the blog and on LinkedIn.
See you in San Francisco! 👋
