Operational sovereignty: Can platform engineering make digital independence real?

Digital sovereignty gets a lot of airtime in strategy decks and almost none in system designs. That gap is about to become very expensive. Some datacentres are located in conflict zones. Hyperscalers with artificially low pricing subsidized by debt are repricing. Regulations are shifting faster than procurement cycles. Benjamin Brial will show how platform engineering turns sovereignty from a political buzzword into an engineering discipline. Attendees will see why sovereign cloud costs are honest, why a multi-cloud setup may be a trap, and how to build a platform for control over where workloads run, data, and how fast organizations can move when the landscape shifts.
