EU doesn’t need cloud tech to have cloud tech for the sake of it but rather to build an ecosystem on top of it. The cloud is just the missing plumbing not the end goal

AWS has like 200 services. My point is with the right combination of half a dozen you can cover a big chunk of needs

The cloud is the stuff on top off the plumbing - the cloud is the porcelain.

And my question is still "On what would you run this, and how would it talk to other machines?"

It's not that impressive to say "We're rebuilding our US-based tech stack so that it is still based on US tech", is it?
