OpenText expands European presence with AWS sovereign cloud integration

OpenText has made its enterprise data solutions available on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, with the aim of supporting security and governance requirements for European customers.

OpenText, a company focused on secure information management for AI, has made its enterprise data and AI solutions available on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud. The aim of this initiative is to support secure and compliant data handling for organisations operating in Europe.

The Canadian-based company is integrating its hybrid sovereign cloud services with the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, making its services available to customers in the European market. This allows organisations to use AWS cloud capabilities while keeping data governance and residency within European boundaries.

The available suite includes OpenText Content Management, OpenText Documentum Content Management, OpenText Core Application Security, and OpenText Core Service Management. These tools are delivered through AWS’s sovereign cloud infrastructure and support structured content management as well as preparation of data for AI-driven analytics and automation.

Customers can use these services while benefiting from AWS security standards, availability, and performance, as well as meeting European Union requirements related to operational autonomy and data residency.

The AWS European Sovereign Cloud is designed as an independent cloud environment with technical controls and legal frameworks intended for European governments and enterprises. Its infrastructure is located entirely within the EU and is separated from other AWS Regions.

Organisations using the platform have access to AWS services, security features, performance capabilities, and ongoing updates within a consistent architecture. AWS components such as the Nitro System are also available, supporting application development while maintaining customer control over data and operations.
