Best of LinkedIn: Cloud Insights CW 37/ 38

We curate most relevant posts about Cloud Insights on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways. This edition overwhelmingly concentrate on the topics of Cloud Sovereignty and Digital Independence, particularly in Europe and Canada, as nations seek to mitigate geopolitical risks and comply with local data laws like the US CLOUD Act. Several major technology firms, including Oracle, Microsoft, AWS, and SAP, are responding to this demand by launching or expanding Sovereign Cloud solutions with enhanced data residency, compliance, and local operational control. Furthermore, the texts address related strategic themes such as AI Infrastructure, highlighting major investments in the UK and Norway to build sovereign, high-performance AI capabilities, and the critical need for Cloud Security and Resilience, advising on strategies like Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and avoiding common cloud learning pitfalls. Finally, the sources touch on the strategic transformation of enterprise systems, noting the shift from legacy finance systems to SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud and the integration of AI agents into Human Capital Management (HCM) platforms.
