en.Wedoany.com Reported - T Cloud Public, as a European cloud service provider, has officially become part of the cloud and artificial intelligence service framework agreement for German federal, state, and local governments. The agreement was awarded to Bechtle AG by GovTech Deutschland, and the inclusion of T Cloud Public provides the public sector with a cloud platform that combines European sovereignty with modern hyperscale infrastructure performance. Going forward, government agencies at all levels can directly procure cloud and AI infrastructure under clearly defined conditions without undergoing lengthy individual tendering processes.
Under the framework arrangement, procurement officers and IT managers can directly access cloud and AI resources through Bechtle's multi-cloud brokerage portal. This access method applies to the German Platform, the MEDI:CUS healthcare platform, and all authorized federal, state, and municipal agencies. The framework is based on the GovTech runtime environment developed by GovTech Deutschland, which adheres to the security requirements of the German Stack and supports the standardized deployment and cross-organizational reuse of specialized applications and AI solutions.
T Cloud Public complies with the highest security standards, including BSI C5:2020, ISO 27001, and GDPR, with all data processed and stored exclusively in German data centers. This means public institutions have full control over their data and operations, avoid vendor lock-in, and eliminate dependence on legal systems outside of Europe. Deutsche Telekom stated that the platform currently serves over 7,000 customers from the commercial, research, and public sectors.
The platform's practical capabilities have already been demonstrated in the state of Baden-Württemberg: T-Systems successfully migrated the state's Moodle learning platform, serving over 1,600 schools and approximately 1.5 million students, to T Cloud Public. The platform operates entirely within Germany, with automatic elastic scaling ensuring stability during peak loads. This model can also be extended to AI-assisted government services, health platforms, and digital administrative processes at the federal level.
Ferri Abolhassan, CEO of T-Systems International GmbH and member of the Deutsche Telekom Board of Management, stated: "Germany should not only call for digital sovereignty in policy papers but also implement it concretely. With T Cloud Public, we are providing precisely the right cornerstone and proving that secure and high-performance data centers can also be successfully operated in Europe. By the end of 2026, our cloud will be functionally on par with international hyperscale providers—and in terms of pricing, we are already competitive today."
