GPT-6 Astra in Copilot, GitHub and Foundry: the admin map

GPT-6 Astra reached Microsoft tenants through four doors in 48 hours: Foundry, Copilot Cowork, Copilot Studio and GitHub Copilot, two of them on by default. Each door has a different operator, data path, meter and off switch, from OpenAI running as a Microsoft subprocessor inside the EU Data Boundary to GitHub billing at list price. Here is the map and the admin checklist for a Swedish tenant.

Claude Sonnet 5 in Microsoft 365 Copilot: EU tenant guide

Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 5 started rolling out in Microsoft 365 Copilot on 2 July 2026, beginning with Copilot Cowork and Copilot in PowerPoint, and for EU tenants it is a governance decision rather than a feature update. The Anthropic subprocessor arrangement changed in May 2026, the models run outside the EU Data Boundary, and Swedish admins now face concrete choices about tenant settings, pilot scoping and DPIA updates.

CADA 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.
