Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud Launch
Oracle has launched Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud, a cloud solution specifically designed to meet the data residency and sovereignty requirements of the European Union.
Increased data security in the EU
The new cloud environment is divided into two separate regions located in Madrid and Frankfurt, and is completely isolated from the rest of Oracle's cloud infrastructure. It is operated by new Oracle entities established in the EU and staffed by employees residing in the EU. Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud complies with the strict data protection regulations of the EU and enables businesses to keep their data within the borders of the EU. This solution is ideal for regulated industries such as finance, healthcare, and the public sector.

Same functionality and service agreements
Customers will have the same functionality and service agreements as in Oracle's global cloud and can expect competitive prices. Access to data from countries outside the EU will be managed by the new EU-based Oracle entities, which have full decision-making authority. Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud offers a robust and secure cloud infrastructure suitable for mission-critical applications and digital transformations.
Commitment to the European market
With the launch of Oracle EU Sovereign Cloud, Oracle follows in the footsteps of other major cloud providers who have established isolated EU data centers in response to the strict data protection requirements of the EU. This dedicated EU cloud solution underscores Oracle's commitment to serving the European market and delivering solutions that meet the specific needs within the EU's regulated industry.
