For office webapps "local servers to store customer information" is not the solution IMHO. Spreadsheets and documents in general can store arbitrary data, including personal information. If MS's customers are told that documents are stored in the USA they can't store personal information in there and I don't understand why this should apply only to schools and not to companies in general. A solution could be creating a German company using German servers, licensing Office 365 from MS and also paying it to maintain those servers. That should put the data out of the reach of the CLOUD act.
