AWS announces Digital Sovereignty Pledge to protect customers assets in Cloud

In a bid to give its customers more control over their digital assets, Amazon Web Services (AWS), the Cloud arm of Amazon, has announced ‘Digital Sovereignty Pledge,’ a commitment to offer its customers the most advanced set of sovereignty controls and features available in the cloud.

Customers have always controlled the location of their data with AWS. For example, currently in Europe, customers have the choice to deploy their data into any of eight existing AWS Regions.

“We commit to deliver even more services and features to protect our customers’ data. We further commit to expanding on our existing capabilities to provide even more fine-grained data residency controls and transparency.
