Amazon Web Services (AWS) has announced a major investment of €7.8 billion ($8.44 billion) to enhance its cloud computing infrastructure in Germany, aiming to strengthen its presence in Europe. This initiative will see the establishment of multiple data centers in the German state of Brandenburg by the end of 2025.
This investment supports AWS’s strategy to store data on servers within the European Union, a move designed to comply with stringent data privacy regulations and cater to customers in highly regulated industries. “Investing in Germany ensures our customers’ data is managed within the EU, adhering to local privacy laws,” an AWS spokesperson stated.
The project is expected to generate approximately 2,800 full-time jobs annually in local businesses, providing a significant boost to the regional economy and supporting the tech industry in Brandenburg.
AWS’s announcement also includes a recent partnership with Telefónica Germany. This collaboration, set to begin later this month, will transition one million 5G customers to AWS’s cloud platform, enhancing service delivery and customer experience through the cloud’s scalability and flexibility.
Local officials and industry experts have welcomed AWS’s investment. A representative from the Brandenburg economic development agency remarked, “This significant investment underscores the region’s potential as a hub for technological innovation and economic growth.”
AWS’s commitment to expanding its cloud infrastructure in Germany reflects the growing importance of cloud computing in Europe’s digital economy. This investment is poised to solidify Germany’s role as a key player in the global tech landscape, ensuring that European businesses and governments can leverage advanced cloud technologies while meeting local data privacy requirements.
