Worth noting that there is a European company (I believe headquartered in Sweden) whose mission is to build an EU-first cloud to compete with the large US offerings.
Evroc[1] is their name and I’ve been following them for a few years now. They raised a large amount in 2023 [2] and looks like they’ve just broken ground on land to build a data center just last week [3]
Very curious on how this will work for them and I plan on following their journey very closely. Any EU-based cloud engineers should apply to join!
