Modular software stack

A turnkey solution for secure clouds

The Modular software stack provides open source reference implementations and thus shows how a sovereign cloud works in practice. The software stack is based on proven projects such as OpenStack and Kubernetes, is developed by the community and offers turnkey foundations for your own cloud infrastructures with reference implementations.

SCS thus enables the provision of a flexible, secure and interoperable cloud platform that can be adapted to different deployment scenarios - from public institutions to private providers.

The modular software stack provides a practical, immediately usable basis for setting up an SCS-compliant cloud infrastructure.
It combines proven open source technologies to create a secure, transparent and scalable environment that ensures independence from proprietary systems and promotes interoperability.

Technological basis for digital sovereignty in the cloud

The modular software stack bundles all the basic technologies required for a standardised, interoperable cloud infrastructure are required. It encompasses virtualisation, container management and automation – tailored to the certifiable SCS standards.

complete solution

SCS integrates all essential components into a seamlessly functioning stack – for a fast, standard-compliant entry into cloud operations.

open-source approach

SCS is based entirely on proven open source components such as OpenStack, Kubernetes and Ceph.

SCS-certified integrators

The following are available for implementing an SCS-compliant cloud infrastructure: certified integrators ready, who have proven expertise in setting up and operating SCS-compliant cloud environments. They provide support in the planning, implementation and further development of solutions based on SCS standards.
