Warum jetzt

Markt-Kontext

Der Finanzsektor in DACH ist hochreguliert und cloud-abhängig zugleich. BaFin-Merkblatt Cloud-Computing, EBA- und EIOPA-Guidelines, DORA ab 2025, EU Data Act, NIS2 und DSGVO geben den Rahmen.

01

Organizational challenges

Municipal operators often work with heterogeneous IT structures and limited resources for modern cloud platforms

  • Many individual projects without a central data platform and shared data models

  • Staffing and expertise shortages make in-house operation difficult

  • Intermunicipal cooperation remains technically and organizationally complex

  • Public tenders demand a European, sustainable cloud

02

Technical challenges

Distributed IoT sensors and urban data sources generate large data volumes with varying latency requirements

  • Need for stable platforms for real-time analysis of traffic, environmental measurements, and energy flows

  • Integration of existing systems such as GIS, SCADA, and open data portals increases complexity

  • Scalable platform services and multi-tenancy are central for intermunicipal models
