About Gaia-X
About Gaia-X
Gaia-X is a European initiative to develop a data and cloud infrastructure that guarantees European values such as data sovereignty. This way, users gain more control and can share data securely if desired. Eventually, Gaia-X should provide guidelines and standards for an industry-developed distributed, federated data infrastructure.
Why participate?
Still many innovations in ICT are needed to fulfill the promises of Gaia-X. On an international level, Gaia-X works on the agreements, standards and conditions in which innovative technologies and processes for governance are brought together.
The agreements with providers and other market parties must be translated into more concrete implementations of standards and technologies.
Due to a national Gaia-X hub, organizations can easily participate in the Gaia-X activities. By being informed an by contributing organizations can ultimately reap the offered by the developments around Gaia-X.
The Dutch hub is responsible for exchanging knowledge and exploring existing usecases. This way data can be used more intelligently and clarifies the possibilities of a European cloud infrastructure and data storage.
