Sovereign EU Cloud with Exoscale
Leave US dependencies behind.
Move to the sovereign EU Cloud.
Based on Exoscale, we offer you a modern Cloud Native platform for the secure operation of your applications. If needed, we migrate existing services from US clouds or other environments to Exoscale. This way, data sovereignty becomes a real competitive advantage.

For SMEs and startups that operate self-developed software or standard software while processing critical data. For companies that need to comply with data protection requirements and/or operate in accordance with NIS2.
SMEs and SaaS startups in the DACH region
Operators of critically sensitive data (e.g., patient data)
Regulatory-driven companies (e.g. Healthcare, FinTech)
Data must remain in Austria or in the EU (GDPR, data protection, customer requirements)
Companies that outsource operations and infrastructure to focus on their core business
Teams with unclear Kubernetes & DevOps know-how
Companies that prefer local, personal, and direct support instead of long hotline waiting times.
Healthcare solutions that require a direct connection to the Austrian e-card network.
Why now?
When the dependency on the US cloud becomes a data protection and business risk.
US hyperscalers are subject to the Cloud Act. This can have implications for GDPR compliance, data sovereignty, and control over critical data.
External legal access
US cloud providers are subject to political decisions and laws such as the Cloud Act. Data with a physical storage location in the EU can also be affected.

Frequently Asked Questions about Cloud Migration and EU Infrastructure
Does migration work if applications are heavily dependent on AWS/GCP/Azure?
This is the normal case for most of our customers. We analyze your existing services and identify which can be replaced 1:1 and where adjustments are necessary. Not everything needs to be migrated immediately – we work in phases and prioritize based on effort and benefit. Managed services like AWS Lambda require more work than standardized container workloads.

What prerequisites does agsolutions need from your side?
A technical contact who can make decisions and has access to the existing infrastructure documentation. A dedicated team member on your side is advisable, but not a must.

How does remote collaboration work?
We work completely remotely with regular video calls, depending on the phase daily or weekly. Communication takes place via Slack or Teams, documentation and code through shared Git repositories. You have insight into the current status at any time.

How are GDPR and NIS2 requirements implemented?
From the very beginning, we focus on data residency in the EU, encrypted connections, access control (IAM), audit logging, and documented security policies. For specific compliance requirements, such as those under NIS2, we are happy to provide you with personalized advice.

What services can be added optionally?
Our focus is on infrastructure migration and platform engineering. In addition, we also offer compliance audits, 24/7 operations after go-live, application development, and legacy code refactoring upon request – either directly by us or through our partner network.

What happens after the go-live?
After the go-live, we will hand over the platform with complete documentation and runbooks to your team. Optionally, we offer post-go-live support (e.g. 30 days) or longer-term managed services contracts. You decide how much support you need.

Why not simply migrate to Exoscale yourself?
Generally, you can – Exoscale is well documented and intentionally simpler than AWS or Azure. The effort rarely lies in the cloud itself, but in everything around it: setting up CI/CD pipelines, configuring Kubernetes, secrets management, monitoring, automated backups, database migration without downtime. We have done this for several clients and know where the typical stumbling blocks are. You save yourself the learning curve and have a platform that is production-ready from day one – not a project that your team has to juggle alongside daily business for months.

Why Exoscale?
Exoscale is a European and certified cloud provider with data centers throughout the EU and also in Austria. Workloads are guaranteed to remain in their respective countries – Austrian data stays in Austria.
Exoscale covers the most common requirements: Compute, Kubernetes, S3-compatible Object Storage, Load Balancing, and Managed Databases.
Billing is done without upfront costs or long-term contracts, and internal traffic is free. You get the relevant building blocks of the large providers – without the complexity and opacity that often comes with AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Additionally, there is personal support with short response times: At Exoscale, you don't end up in a ticket system with weeks of waiting time, but with real contact persons.

Sustainability at Exoscale
Exoscale sources over 90% of its electricity from renewable sources – in Austria and Switzerland, it is 100% (hydropower). Data center partners Equinix and A1 Group are both working towards climate neutrality by 2030. Exoscale itself relies on durable server hardware, energy-efficient rack design, and refurbished network components. Details and certificates can be found at exoscale.com/sustainability.

What does Cloud Native mean?
Cloud Native describes an approach where applications are designed from the ground up to operate in cloud environments. Specifically, this means: containers instead of traditional servers, automated deployments, independently scalable services, and declarative configuration. The result is applications that automatically adjust to load, run identically across different environments, and continue functioning in the event of failures of individual components. At the same time, Cloud Native means intentionally avoiding proprietary services and instead relying on open standards – this keeps your infrastructure portable and prevents you from being tied to a single vendor.

Will third-party software also be provided?
Yes. In addition to your own application, we also optionally provide the infrastructure services around it. Examples: Keycloak for Identity & Access Management, Temporal for workflow orchestration, or HashiCorp Vault for secrets management.
