Why look for a European alternative to Amazon Web Services?

Amazon Web Services belongs to a company headquartered in the United States. Under the 2018 CLOUD Act, US authorities can require companies under their jurisdiction to hand over data they control, even when it is stored on European servers. A provider headquartered in Europe with no US parent is not subject to that law: the contract and the data stay under the GDPR and European courts.

7 are from companies headquartered in the European Union and 1 from other European countries, such as Switzerland, Norway or the UK, with their own legal framework: each listing says so.

What to check when choosing

In the cloud, compare available regions, managed services equivalent to the ones you use, data transfer costs and ease of migration.
