Digital sovereignty is no longer merely a political buzzword, but a concrete technical and strategic issue for companies that use cloud services, AI systems, and modern platforms. In many IT environments, dependencies on vendors, proprietary technologies, or closed data formats are creeping in—often without a conscious decision and with direct implications for security, costs, innovation, and operational freedom.
In this practice-oriented training , you training how sovereignty in digital infrastructures can be assessed, technically classified, and operationally improved. With a focus on cloud, AI, and open-source architectures. The focus is on specific risks, architectural patterns, governance approaches, and technical measures that organizations can use to reduce their dependencies while simultaneously making productive use of modern platforms.
