Dremio, the unified lakehouse platform for self-service analytics and AI, and STACKIT, a data-sovereign cloud provider in Europe and part of the IT organisation within Schwarz Group, today announced a strategic partnership that provides European organisations with the first fully managed, cloud-based modern lakehouse offering capable of meeting today’s stringent data residency requirements.
Unveiled at Dremio’s annual user conference, Subsurface Live, this collaboration reportedly marks a significant milestone in STACKIT’s mission to expand its expertise and product range in data and AI across Europe.
Data residency requirements are the legal and regulatory stipulations that dictate where a company’s data must physically reside. This means that physical servers hosting a business’s data need to be located within a specified country or region to comply with local laws. With this partnership, STACKIT not only embraces open standards like Apache Iceberg, but also reaffirms its commitment to empowering customers with data sovereignty and freedom from vendor lock-in. By leveraging Dremio’s unified lakehouse platform, STACKIT is set to overhaul data management by enabling organisations to transition seamlessly from traditional data lakes to high-performance and agile data lakehouses.
