The Cloud Independent Data Platform exists because most "data sovereignty" is a setting in someone else's console. Real sovereignty means you can pick up your data and your access policies and walk to a different cloud — or to your own datacenter — without a multi-year migration.

So every layer is a widely adopted open standard governed by a neutral body: Apache Iceberg and Polaris for tables and catalog, ANSI SQL via SQE or Trino for query, OpenID Connect for identity, OPA/Rego for authorization, the S3 API for storage, Kubernetes + Helm for deployment. No single vendor controls any component of the stack.

That makes regulations like GDPR, DORA, and NIS2 tractable: data location is your choice, access decisions are policy-as-code you can audit, and there is no proprietary format holding you hostage.

The platform is designed and built by Schuberg Philis, integrating proven open-source components — Polaris, Keycloak, OPA, Trino, the Sovereign Query Engine — into one secure, operable whole. It pairs with SQE, the sovereign query engine that powers the platform's sqe deployment mode.
