Reality Check: Sovereign Data Management from Germany?

Data sovereignty is no longer just a political slogan – it has become a strategic cornerstone of modern data strategies.
But how sovereign are Europe’s cloud platforms really?
And can they match the hyperscalers in performance, scalability, and AI-readiness?

The new BARC Research Note “Reality Check: Sovereign Data Management - Made in Europe?”, created in collaboration with Dremio and STACKIT, provides data-driven answers to these questions.

BARC evaluated STACKIT, the cloud provider of Schwarz Digits (the IT and digital arm of the Schwarz Group), and its Dremio-based Data Lakehouse through a comprehensive hands-on test – covering usability, performance, scalability, and suitability for analytics and AI workloads.

Developed for the European market and currently available in the DACH region:
The Research Note highlights a sovereign cloud offering that demonstrates how modern data architectures “Made in Germany” are becoming reality.

Inside the Whitepaper:

How sovereign Europe’s cloud platforms truly are
Which technological strengths and weaknesses define the market
How data sovereignty can be practically implemented and measured
Why open lakehouse architectures form the foundation of sovereign data strategies
