Building European Sovereign Private PaaS with codbex ​

As Europe accelerates its push for digital sovereignty, enterprises are rethinking their dependence on hyperscalers and non-European platforms. The goal is clear: regain control over data, infrastructure, and innovation - without sacrificing developer productivity or enterprise-grade capabilities. This is where codbex steps in.

We enable enterprises to build a fully capable private Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) on top of sovereign European Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) providers. By combining cloud-native abstractions with deep enterprise integration, codbex delivers the benefits of modern PaaS - while keeping data, workloads, and governance firmly within Europe.

Enterprise PaaS, Without Compromise ​

Unlike generic container platforms or developer tools, codbex is designed as a complete application platform:

  • Application development and runtime (Java, JavaScript, APIs, events)
  • Workflow and process automation (BPMN-based, enterprise-ready)
  • Integrated data services and analytics
  • Built-in security, identity, and lifecycle management
  • Multi-tenant and self-service capabilities for internal teams

All of this runs on sovereign European IaaS - such as EU-based cloud providers and on-premise infrastructure - ensuring compliance with GDPR, data residency requirements, and sector-specific regulations.

Enterprise - Ready Benefits ​

By leveraging Codbex, organizations can:

  • Model, generate, and iterate applications rapidly with visual design tooling.
  • Automate processes intelligently and integrate them with domain models.
  • Create seamless, responsive user experiences with low-code UI builders.
  • Connect systems and data via built-in integration services.
  • Extend the platform with pro-code capabilities for custom business logic and integrations.

Sovereignty by Design ​

codbex is not a wrapper around foreign hyperscaler services. It is an open, standards-based platform built on decades of enterprise software engineering, enabling:

  • Full control over deployment, upgrades, and operations
  • Independence from vendor lock-in
  • Transparency at the infrastructure, platform, and application layers

This makes codbex a strong foundation for governments, regulated industries, and large enterprises seeking long-term strategic autonomy.

Suitability for Public Sector and Regulated Environments ​

codbex is designed to meet the structural, regulatory, and operational requirements of public-sector organizations and regulated industries within the European Union. The platform enables public institutions to build and operate a sovereign, secure, and future-proof Private PaaS while maintaining full control over data, infrastructure, and governance.

Strategic Partnerships ​

codbex is not positioned as a standalone technology vendor, but as a strategic platform partner embedded in the European enterprise and cloud ecosystem. Our partnerships reinforce our commitment to sovereignty, interoperability, and long-term enterprise viability.

Open Telekom Cloud (OTC) ​

codbex is strategically aligned with Open Telekom Cloud (OTC) as a leading sovereign IaaS provider in Europe. OTC offers:

  • Full data residency within the EU
  • Compliance with European regulations and public-sector requirements
  • Transparent operations under European jurisdiction

By running codbex on OTC, enterprises can build a fully sovereign private PaaS that combines modern cloud-native capabilities with trusted European infrastructure - without reliance on non-EU hyperscalers.

SAP Ecosystem and Enterprise Systems ​

codbex has deep roots in the SAP ecosystem, with technology and expertise originating from decades of SAP enterprise platform development. As a result, codbex is a natural choice for organizations looking to:

  • Modernize SAP landscapes
  • Migrate from SAP BW or SAP HANA to open and cloud-native architectures
  • Integrate SAP ERP and S/4HANA with modern data platforms and workflows

codbex acts as a bridge between SAP and the open cloud world, enabling gradual transformation without disruptive rewrites.

Open Standards and Technology Partners ​

Beyond OTC and SAP, codbex is built around open standards and widely adopted technologies, ensuring interoperability and long-term freedom of choice:

  • Kubernetes and container-native runtimes
  • BPMN, CMIS, SQL, REST, and event-driven architectures
  • Integration with modern data platforms, analytics tools, and CI/CD pipelines

This partner-first approach allows enterprises to compose their own sovereign platform stack - aligned with internal policies, industry regulations, and strategic goals.

Make Europe Great Again - Digitally ​

Europe’s competitiveness depends on its ability to innovate on its own terms. With codbex, organizations can build modern, scalable, and secure platforms - made in Europe, running in Europe, and governed by European values.

Private PaaS on sovereign IaaS is no longer a trade-off. With codbex, it is a strategic advantage.
