(Obviously easier if you're already running your own services and not relying on Outlook and Teams.)

https://itk.aarhus.dk/nyheder/projektnyheder/itk-skifter-til-europaeisk-cloud-hosting-leverandoer@floe Clarification – we (ITK) moved the services that we host for the city from Azure to Hetzner. This was fairly easy because all of them are open-source projects that don’t depend on any proprietary Azure services. Most of them just run in docker on a Linux VM.

@floe However, the city still has a lot running in Azure and still use Office, Outlook and Teams in Microsoft’s cloud. We are starting a pilot project to see if we can challenge that so that we can choose if an employee has their email in Exchange/Outlook or in our own cloud. This however is a much harder migration because everything from AD/SSO to room bookings etc. are dependent on Microsoft infrastructure.

@floe We have had a lot of interest from other government agencies in Denmark based on that article and https://www.version2.dk/artikel/kommune-droppede-microsoft-tysk-cloud-jeg-sparer-tredjedele-af-prisen. There seems to be a broad consensus that it’s a priority to have and use alternative European clouds.
