The European
Cloud Backbone
Four datacenters. One European backbone.
Europe's AI and regulated workloads need a cloud that answers to European law, not a subsidiary of a foreign parent. We are that cloud: incorporated, operated, and run by us, from our own datacenters in Madrid, Munich, Helsinki, and Amsterdam. Since 2015.
99.9% uptime, by contract.

What we operate, end to end.
European sovereignty isn't a feature. It's the architecture.
Running since 2015.

Cloud
Virtual Private Servers (VPS) for everyday workloads and Virtual Dedicated Servers (VDS) with dedicated CPU and RAM when you need the full resources. Plus Object and Block Storage, Managed Redis and MongoDB, Cloud SSO/IAM, Cloud Active Directory.
Specs

Solutions built on top
Data-Driven
Analytics pipelines, data lakes, and real-time ETL on infrastructure you control end to end.
Event Streaming
Kafka-compatible message queues running on our own network. Sub-10ms latency between our datacenters.
Artificial Intelligence
GPU-backed inference endpoints, training clusters, and vector databases. Your GPUs, exclusively yours. No neighbours on the hypervisor.
IT Consulting
Architecture reviews, cloud migration planning, and embedded engineers for the infrastructure you'd rather not maintain yourself.
SecOps
SOC monitoring, SIEM, incident response, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning. A fractional CISO on call for the compliance advisory most in-house teams can't staff full-time.
Disaster Recovery
Dual-site failover, EU-only replication, and BGP multihoming for network-level redundancy. We plan and maintain the setup, and help you fold in your own datacenters alongside ours.
Sovereignty isn't a promise.
It's the legal structure.
DIVERSITY is a privately held European company, founded in 2015, operating four datacenters in Europe. We help teams build, deploy, and scale workloads on infrastructure that answers to European law.
What that means, concretely.
No US parent. No foreign chain of control. There is no entity above us that a foreign court can compel to hand over your data. We run cloud, bare metal, telecom, and colocation from our own datacenters in Madrid, Munich, Helsinki, and Amsterdam. Over 1,500 customers, from startups to Santander and BASF. The same team that answers your sales call keeps your servers running. Engineers, not a ticket queue.
Data in Europe
Workloads and critical data on European infrastructure. No transit through foreign jurisdictions.
GDPR by design
Built for traceability, compliance, and control. Not a layer added afterward.
European datacenters
Madrid, Munich, Helsinki, Amsterdam. Owned and operated by us.
No US parent
No exposure to extraterritorial reach like the CLOUD Act. Jurisdiction is the shield.
Why it matters
Sovereign by structure.
Not a marketing claim, a legal one. Here is what the structure actually gets you, compared honestly to a typical US-headquartered hyperscaler.
Scroll to see the full comparison
| DIVERSITY | Typical US hyperscaler | |
|---|---|---|
| Incorporated & legally subject to EU law | Yes. European entity, EU jurisdiction. | Depends. Many are US-incorporated, or a US-parent subsidiary. |
| No US parent that can receive a CLOUD Act order | None. No entity above us to compel. | Often yes, if the parent company is US-incorporated. |
| Data stays in EU datacenters | Always. Madrid, Munich, Helsinki, Amsterdam. | Varies by the region you select; not guaranteed by structure. |
| The team that answers your sales call keeps your servers running | Same engineers, from sales through support. | Typically a tiered ticket queue. |
| Direct peering with AWS, Azure, GCP, Oracle | Direct peering at EU exchange points. | Varies by provider and region. |

Things people ask before signing.
Straight answers, no upsell.
What does 'sovereign cloud' actually mean?
It means the company running your infrastructure is incorporated, operated, and legally subject to European law. Not a subsidiary answering to a US parent. When a government or regulator issues a demand for your data, the answer is determined by EU law, not a foreign jurisdiction. That is not a feature we added. It is how we are built.
Why does it matter where my cloud provider is headquartered?
The US CLOUD Act allows American authorities to compel US-incorporated companies (including their foreign subsidiaries) to hand over data stored anywhere in the world, without notifying you. If your provider is ultimately a US company, that applies to them. DIVERSITY is a European company with no US parent. There is no entity above us that can receive such an order.
We already use encryption. Aren't we covered?
Encryption protects data in transit and at rest from third parties. It does not protect against orders served on your cloud provider under their home jurisdiction's law. If the provider holds the keys, or is compelled to assist in accessing your data, encryption alone is not a legal shield. Jurisdiction is.
Is European cloud more expensive or slower?
No. Our datacenters in Madrid, Munich, Helsinki, and Amsterdam run the same hardware generations as the hyperscalers. Latency within Europe is lower when your users, your compliance requirements, and your infrastructure are all on the same continent. The cost of a data breach, a regulatory fine, or a forced migration later tends to be higher than any price difference today.
What industries do you work with?
Finance, healthcare, defence, legal, and any sector where data residency is a contractual or regulatory requirement, not just a preference. We also work with AI teams that need GPU-backed infrastructure without shared tenancy, and with businesses that simply want a provider they can call and get an engineer, not a ticket queue.
We're already deep into AWS / Azure / GCP. Is migration realistic?
Yes, and we have done it many times. Our architecture team runs honest migration assessments: we tell you what is straightforward, what is complex, and what is probably not worth moving. We also peer directly with AWS, Azure, GCP, and Oracle at internet exchange points, so migration traffic moves over private peering rather than the public internet. That makes transfers faster, more predictable, and cheaper than most customers expect.
How does this help with GDPR and EU compliance?
GDPR requires that personal data is processed under a legal framework that guarantees its protection. Storing data with a US-owned provider creates a structural tension: EU data protection law on one side, US extraterritorial reach on the other. Running on DIVERSITY removes that tension. Your data stays in EU datacenters, under EU jurisdiction, with no foreign parent company that could be compelled to act against your interests. For regulated industries, that is not a nice-to-have. It is the baseline.
Who is DIVERSITY?
We have been running cloud, bare metal, telecom, and colocation infrastructure since 2015. Over 1,500 customers, from startups to Santander and BASF, run workloads on our infrastructure today. Our own datacenters are in Madrid, Munich, Helsinki, and Amsterdam. We have offices in Madrid, Tallinn, London, and Casper. We are privately held, European, and the same team that answers your sales call is the one that keeps your servers running.
Four offices. One inbox per region.
A human answers.
