Lieu: The EU’s Path to Digital Sovereignty

We help European organizations escape US-controlled hyperscalers (Azure, AWS, Google Cloud) and reclaim their infrastructure—without complexity, lock-in, or compliance risks.

Why We Exist

European data belongs in Europe. Yet most companies still rely on US cloud providers, exposing them to:

• Legal risks (CLOUD Act, FISA 702) index.html
• Hidden costs (egress fees, vendor lock-in)
• Compliance gaps (GDPR, NIS2, DORA violations)

Lieu was built to fix this. We’re a team of cloud architects, open-source experts, and compliance specialists who design and execute migrations to EU-owned infrastructure. whether that’s sovereign cloud providers (like STACKIT or OVHcloud) or self-hosted open-source stacks

Our Approach

1.  Vendor-Neutral Guidance
We don’t resell cloud services or push proprietary tools. Instead, we:

Map your needs to the best EU alternative (e.g., STACKIT for German enterprises, OVHcloud for privacy-focused orgs, or open-source for full control) index.html.
Avoid lock-in by design—every solution we build is portable and compliance-ready.

2. Compliance as Code
Sovereignty isn’t just about where data sits—it’s about how it’s governed. We bake in:

GDPR/NIS2/DORA alignment from day one getlieu.com.
Data locality guarantees (no silent US routing).
Audit trails for regulators and stakeholders.

3. Open Source, Without the Chaos
We turn "free" software into enterprise-grade tools by:

Curating supported open-source suites (e.g., Nextcloud for file sharing, Matrix for messaging)

Handling deployment, maintenance, and scaling—so your team stays focused on
