Cloud computing is a platform service for storing, managing, and processing data on remote rather than local servers. Since data are the basic units of the digital economy, all major powers are devising strategies to migrate their data to the Cloud and fully harness the benefits of the digital revolution. Such migration concerns both the public and the private sector, including government agencies, ministries, and small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as well as all businesses involved in the management of critical infrastructures. The Cloud market, however, is currently concentrated among a handful of (mostly US-based) companies, whose technical capabilities and scalability are often indispensable for third states to develop their Public Cloud strategies. As a result, several polities are striving to strike a balance between economic considerations - the need to have US hyperscalers as part of their Cloud ecosystem - and security ones - protecting the confidentiality of their data from companies which are potentially subject to extra-territorial legislations. Against this background, the project focuses on the polities of the European Union and the United Kingdom, comparing their strategic approaches to cloud computing. In doing so, the project seeks to answer the following research question: how do they seek to balance the strategic need to accelerate its migration to cloud computing with the objective of reducing its reliance on foreign cloud providers?

云计算是用于存储，管理和处理远程服务器而不是本地服务器上的数据的平台服务。由于数据是数字经济的基本单位，因此所有主要权力都在制定将其数据迁移到云的策略，并充分利用数字革命的好处。这种移民涉及公共部门和私营部门，包括政府机构，政府部门以及中小型企业（中小企业），以及参与关键基础设施管理的所有企业。但是，目前，云市场集中在少数几家（主要是美国）的公司中，这些公司的技术能力和可扩展性通常对于第三州制定其公共云战略是必不可少的。结果，几个政体正在努力在经济考虑之间取得平衡 - 需要使我们的大型标准作为其云生态系统的一部分以及安全系统的一部分 - 保护其数据的机密性，这些公司可能会受到可能遵守法规外立法的公司的保密性。在这种背景下，该项目着重于欧盟和英国的政治，将其战略方法与云计算进行了比较。通过这样做，该项目试图回答以下研究问题：他们如何寻求平衡战略需求，以加速其迁移到云计算，以减少对外国云提供商的依赖？
