AWS does have a European sovereign cloud now: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/opening-the-aws-european-sovereign-cloud/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/opening-the-aws-european-so... Now how bulletproof it is in practice will be tested in years to come, I'm sure. But it seems to be using the same model as AWS in China where a local company licenses and operates the software from AWS.

The Chinese version of AWS isn't the full offering, offering less than 1/3 of the services. ESC appears to be more complete, but it's not a third party local company, but rather, a walled-off subsidy of AWS in Germany.

Nice try by them but the Amazon is still a river and "AWS European Sovereign Cloud" is an oxymoron.

>Now how bulletproof it is in practice will be tested in years to come Zero chance the data stays in the EU. Just think about it for a moment. US CLOUD Act directly conflicts with EUs GDPR. Amazon doesn't want to risk losing EU markets but it can't lose the US market by not complying with US law. If these two conflict Amazon will side with the US. The savvy business move is to pretend to serve the EU market exclusively while privately adhering to the US demands.
