T-Systems enters strategic partnership with Aeven on European cloud

Geopolitical uncertainty has increased the need for digitally sovereign solutions under European legislation across both the private and public sectors. Concerns related to US surveillance laws, tariffs, and executive orders are real, driving growing demand for cloud solutions operated by European providers within Europe. The objective is to ensure full control and protection of business-critical and sensitive data, while reducing exposure to financial and regulatory risks.

Against this backdrop, T-Systems and Aeven are partnering to offer T Cloud Public, T-Systems' European public cloud, to the Danish market.

"We are seeing a clear shift towards solutions where customers want greater control over their data and technological dependencies. Together with T-Systems, we are introducing a strong European cloud alternative that can be integrated directly into modern hybrid cloud architectures. We combine this with advisory, integration, and operations, enabling customers to gain real choice without compromising on security, compliance, or performance," says Søren Lorenzen, Chief Commercial Officer in Aeven.

With the partnership in place, Aeven is now launching a comprehensive enablement program to train relevant employees on T Cloud Public, with a focus on the platform's services and technology. With these capabilities, Aeven will be able to advise customers on the platform, support data migration, and offer T Cloud Public as an integrated part of its multicloud offering. This includes advisory, design, and operations across their platforms, including T-Systems' managed services.

"Europe deserves a cloud that supports modern business processes with the latest AI innovation while ensuring full protection against foreign interference and providing complete control over business-critical data, with the assurance that data is never disclosed to third parties. Therefore, we are pleased with the partnership with Aeven to offer our European cloud to Danish customers who want to strengthen digital sovereignty in Denmark," says Klaus Koefoed, Managing Director at T-Systems Northern Europe.

Together, Aeven and T-Systems see enormous potential in the Danish market, and the commercial collaboration has already begun, with expectations to onboard the first customers to T Cloud Public during the year.
