On Tuesday, SAP said it intends to spend more than 20 billion euros (almost $23.3 billion) improving its sovereign cloud functionality across Europe for the next ten years. The corporation said it is expanding its sovereign cloud solutions to include an infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) platform, which will let companies use a range of computing services via its wide data center network.
