The sovereign cloud illusion

The phrase “sovereign cloud” has become one of the most overused and least scrutinized terms in enterprise technology.

The promise is simple enough: keep data local, maintain operational control, and reduce dependence on foreign systems. The problem is that the reality of cloud architecture does not align with the marketing.
