Cloud, DevOps
& software,
built sovereign.

We are an engineering consultancy. We design, build and operate your infrastructure, software and AI - from sovereign open-source private cloud to DevOps automation. Your data, your keys, your control.

GDPR by designEU datacentersNo vendor lock-in24/7 managed

Not a reseller. Not a single product. One team for your cloud, code and AI - sovereign by design.

Digital sovereignty

Two paths. One owner - you.

Sovereignty is the thread through everything we build. However your stack looks today, there is a path that keeps you in control.

Path A

Sovereign-managed

Keep your provider - we make it sovereign. Hardened, encrypted, EU-resident and fully managed, with a clean exit plan so you are never locked in.

  • Provider-agnostic hardening
  • Encryption & key custody you control
  • 24/7 AIOps operations
10+years running production infrastructure
0vendor lock-in — open-source first
24/7engineers on call, not tickets
Yoursdata, keys & exit — always
Technology-agnostic

We operate across the open-source ecosystem.

Examples, not allegiances. We lead with open standards and adapt to your stack, governance and exit strategy - never married to one tool.

FAQ

Sovereign cloud, answered.

What does Rapid Solutions actually do?

We are an engineering consultancy and managed-services firm, not a cloud provider. We design, build, and operate sovereign cloud, DevOps and AIOps, managed hosting, software, and private AI for you, and we work across the open-source ecosystem rather than reselling one platform. You can engage us to consult, to build, or to run it end to end.

What is the difference between data residency and data sovereignty?

Data residency is the physical fact of where data is stored; data sovereignty is the legal question of which jurisdiction's laws govern access to it. You can store data in an EU data center and still lack sovereignty if the operator is subject to foreign law like the US CLOUD Act, which is why we focus on who holds the keys and runs operations, not just server location.

Are you tied to a specific stack like OpenStack or Terraform?

No. We are deliberately technology-neutral and lead with open standards. For private cloud we work across OpenStack, CloudStack, Proxmox VE, Harvester, and Kubernetes-native stacks; for automation across OpenTofu, Terraform, Pulumi, Crossplane, Ansible, and Nix; and we match each layer to your workloads, compliance needs, and exit strategy rather than to one vendor.

What is the best VMware alternative after the Broadcom price increases?

It depends on your workloads. Proxmox VE or Harvester suit VM-centric estates and fast exits, while OpenStack or CloudStack fit larger multi-tenant clouds, and KubeVirt fits Kubernetes-native platforms. We assess your environment, recommend a vendor-neutral target, and run the migration so you cut licensing cost while keeping full control of your data and keys.

Can you deploy private AI that stays GDPR-compliant?

Yes. We deploy self-hosted LLMs, private RAG, and AI agents on infrastructure you control, behind open OpenAI-compatible interfaces, with a PII protection layer and EU data residency. Prompts, documents, and model weights stay in your environment and are never used to train third-party models.
