💬 Is data sovereignty in the cloud actually realistic?

Our Head of Sales, Stefan Grandl, joined the IT WELT expert roundtable on one of the industry’s most important topics: Cloud and Data Sovereignty 2026.

He shared his perspective on how organizations can design IT landscapes that remain resilient, adaptable, and ready for future challenges.

The key question is no longer “cloud or no cloud”. It is about making the right architectural and strategic decisions to balance innovation, control, and independence.

Topics covered included:

☁️ Why sovereignty is increasingly shaped by architecture and governance, not just contractual agreements
🌍 Whether reducing dependencies on US hyperscalers is realistic, or whether sovereignty means managing dependencies differently
⚖️ Whether solutions such as the European Sovereign Cloud represent a true shift or a pragmatic compromise
🇪🇺 How far European alternatives like Gaia-X can support real-world sovereignty goals

Digital sovereignty is not achieved through isolation. It comes from transparency, clear principles, and the ability to adapt when circumstances change.

Thank you to IT WELT for the inspiring discussion and valuable exchange.

Everyone talks about migrating to Atlassian Cloud. Yet few talk about the decisions that determine whether the migration succeeds. 💭

Before moving a single issue or page, you first need to understand your current environment.

⟡ Which Marketplace apps are cloud-ready, and which need an alternative?
⟡ Which integrations, workflows, and automations need to be adapted?
⟡ How should users, permissions, and identity management be handled?
⟡ Which migration approach best fits your organization?
⟡ What needs to be validated before go-live?

These are decisions that should be made long before migration begins.

That's why every ByteSource migration starts with a Cloud Readiness Assessment.
We analyze your Atlassian environment, identify potential risks, and define a structured migration roadmap, so ex*****on becomes predictable, not reactive.

⏰ Data Center's clock is ticking. Loudly.

Fact is, Data Center stopped getting new features in March 2026; every innovation is Cloud-only now. And it gets tighter from here: license and app purchases stop in 2028, with full end-of-life in 2029.

Waiting isn't the safe choice it looks like:

- Data Center pricing already jumped (up to 40% for legacy customers)
- Ascend loyalty discounts, while they last
- Early movers get first & faster access to new AI features
- Last-minute migration = rushed timelines, limited partner availability

🚀 Starting now is risk management and furthermore a head start.

Curious where your organization stands on the timeline? Let's talk. 👇

Your test suite is green...🟩

But are you testing the right things? 👀

As applications become more complex, it's increasingly difficult to know whether your tests truly cover business-critical paths, or simply execute what was written months ago.

Agentic QA takes a different approach.

Instead of only verifying whether tests pass, it helps determine whether you're testing the right things in the first place. By continuously learning from repositories, documentation, APIs, and other knowledge sources, Agentic QA validates test quality before and after ex*****on, identifies coverage gaps, and recommends improvements that strengthen QA reliability.

Curious how AI is transforming enterprise quality assurance?

At a recent ITW Verlag GmbH roundtable in Vienna, industry experts discussed what it takes to balance global connectivity with greater control over data and digital infrastructure.🛡️

Representing ByteSource, our Head of Sales Michael Joszt emphasized a key point: Digital Sovereignty is not about full independence, but about making deliberate, informed decisions.

In practice, this means:
→ knowing where data is processed,
→ understanding which systems are critical,
→ and building architectures that allow flexibility and change.

And that requires clear strategy and strong ex*****on – something already reflected in how companies design their IT landscapes.

Hybrid and multi-cloud approaches are becoming the standard, combining scalability with control. Open source increases transparency and flexibility, while encryption and external key management help maintain control — even when working with global providers. 🔒🌐

We’re proud to share that we have recently achieved ISO 14001:2015 certification, the international standard for environmental management.

This marks another important step in our ongoing commitment to quality, security, compliance, and sustainability. 🌿

For our clients, this means:
– consistent delivery quality across all services,
– robust protection of sensitive information,
– full compliance with regulatory requirements, and
– a structured approach to environmental responsibility.

These standards are more than certifications for us. They reflect the processes, responsibilities, and values embedded in our daily work. 🌐
