Your Data. Your Control.
Sovereign By Design.

SovereignDB gives European organisations full control over where their data lives and how it is governed - with modern, AI-ready analytics and private AI capability through DBAsk, and no hyperscaler lock-in. Run it yourself, or have VLDB run it for you.

VLDB Solutions is the delivery and implementation partner for SovereignDB - bringing the platform expertise and engineering capacity to deploy it at enterprise scale.

Challenge

Uncontrolled cloud spend, sovereignty risk, and AI exposure

European organisations face escalating hyperscaler costs, growing regulatory pressure on data residency, and mounting risk from using public AI platforms with sensitive enterprise data.

SovereignDB Outcome

A private, governed, enterprise analytics platform ready for AI innovation

A fully controlled, AI-ready analytics environment - deployed in your perimeter, priced predictably, and operated by VLDB's specialist team.

SovereignDB comes in two forms

Control over where your data lives doesn't mean you have to run the platform yourself. Choose the form that matches your team's capacity.

Self-Managed

On your own infrastructure

SovereignDB runs in your own private cloud or data centre, under your own team's operational control. You decide the hosting location, the governance model, and who has access.

Fully Managed

Run for you by VLDB

VLDB deploys and operates SovereignDB on your behalf - day-to-day administration, monitoring, and upgrades handled by our specialists, within the hosting location you choose. Can be combined with DBAaaS or DBAI Platform.
