June 10, 2026CADA explained for Azure customers: EU cloud sovereignty
On 3 June 2026 the European Commission proposed the Cloud and AI Development Act, a regulation that introduces four Union assurance levels for cloud sovereignty and aims to at least triple EU data centre capacity within five to seven years. For Swedish public-sector and regulated teams on Azure, the framework will decide which workloads can stay on a US hyperscaler and which need an EU-controlled alternative, so the classification work should start now.
