Digital sovereignty & open source
We help companies and organisations move step by step to proven open-source solutions with controlled risk, no operational interruption and full support throughout the transition.
Situation
- Data and core workplace tools are held by US cloud providers despite requirements concerning data protection, data location or control.
- Licence costs and dependencies are growing while switching options and technical transparency are decreasing.
- A change is wanted, but it must not interrupt ongoing operations.
What we take on
- Assessment of applications, data, interfaces, identities and operational dependencies.
- Selection of suitable open-source alternatives and an operating model on premises or with a Swiss or EU provider.
- Migration of email, calendars, contacts, files and permissions.
- Parallel operation with a tested rollback strategy for critical stages.
- Introduction of Linux, Nextcloud, openDesk, eM Client and other suitable components.
- Training, documentation, security hardening, monitoring and ongoing support.
