This denotes a 4.2 percentage point upswing compared to the figures recorded in 2021 and these numbers are expected to grow further.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This advance in technology can have great advantages for enterprise, however there are challenges that will have to be anticipated in order to ensure optimal functionality. The integration of cloud technologies varies significantly among EU nations, yet a common feature that unites all European countries are the strict Regulations that govern Cloud Computing Technologies, such as the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GDPR regulations extend beyond the borders of Europe. This regulation not only applies to organizations within the EU\/EEA zone but encompasses any entity processing data, regardless of its location, when dealing with individuals based within the EU\/EEA.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GDPR goes beyond the existing data protection laws in the United States and non-EU\/EEA countries. However, this is not enough to guarantee the data protection of EU companies and government institutions. There are foreign laws that have been passed in the past years by the US and China that have little or no regard to the GDPR and require cloud computing companies to hand data to law enforcement, even when it is stored in Europe.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the effort to preserve highly sensitive information such as personal data from the healthcare sector or public administration, many institutions have opted for secure clouds with a server location within the EU.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the market grows, so does the demand for an European cloud providers that can ensure compliance with European regulations.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Countries like Sweden, the Netherlands, and Slovenia surprisingly obtained more cloud computing services in 2021 than in 2023. Finland (78.3%), Sweden (71.6%), Denmark (69.5%), and Malta (66.7%) reported the highest percentages of enterprises acquiring various computing services. In contrast, in Greece (23.6%), Romania (18.4%), and Bulgaria (17.5%), less than a quarter of enterprises were involved in such purchases.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hf-elementor-layout elementor-element elementor-element-eea6a05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"eea6a05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.20.0 - 20-03-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/cloudification.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/enterprises-cloud-computing-services-ms-2022.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-11029\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cloudification.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/enterprises-cloud-computing-services-ms-2022.png 1920w, https:\/\/cloudification.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/enterprises-cloud-computing-services-ms-2022-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cloudification.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/enterprises-cloud-computing-services-ms-2022-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/cloudification.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/enterprises-cloud-computing-services-ms-2022-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/cloudification.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/enterprises-cloud-computing-services-ms-2022-1536x864.png 1536w\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cac2c2b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cac2c2b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4a5301d layouts-column-align-inherit layouts-section-position-none\" data-id=\"4a5301d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hf-elementor-layout elementor-element elementor-element-46c6c1e elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"46c6c1e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hf-elementor-layout elementor-element elementor-element-cde84c9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cde84c9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How would Europe benefit from a European Cloud\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d48aca8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d48aca8\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-afa4e1e layouts-column-align-inherit layouts-section-position-none\" data-id=\"afa4e1e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hf-elementor-layout elementor-element elementor-element-7890080 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7890080\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s take a look at some aspects in which a European Cloud could significantly benefit European enterprises and contribute to strengthening digital sovereignty and data portability within Europe.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Data Sovereignty and Compliance:<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">European businesses are subject to stringent data protection laws, most notably the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). European cloud providers inherently understand and adhere to these regulations, providing a level of data sovereignty and compliance that may not be guaranteed by their non-European counterparts. By choosing local cloud services, businesses can navigate regulatory complexities easier and build trust with customers who prioritize data protection.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Supporting European Innovation:<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Collaboration with European cloud providers fosters a supportive ecosystem for local innovation. These providers are invested in the success of regional businesses and are more likely to engage in partnerships, research initiatives, and the development of cutting-edge technologies tailored to the European market. Choosing local providers can contribute to the growth of a vibrant and dynamic digital ecosystem within Europe.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Customized Solutions for Regional Needs:<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">European cloud providers are well-versed in the unique requirements of businesses operating within the European Union. They can offer localized solutions that cater to the specific needs of local industries, adapting to diverse regulatory landscapes, languages, and market conditions. This tailored approach enhances the agility and competitiveness of European businesses in a rapidly evolving global market.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Enhanced Security:<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Security is a top concern for businesses in this digital age. European cloud providers implement robust security measures to safeguard data and underlying infrastructure.
