They are working on something called GAIA-X which aims to be something like AWS.
But as with many such initiatives it sounds good in theory, but the practical implementation has issues and is driven largely by lobbyism and revolving-door corruption.
I had never heard of that project, it indeed sounds interesting. Can you provide more info on the project itself and on what makes you say that last paragraph? Would love to read more on this
Nexcloud had some marketing blub about it recently when they were selected for internal cooperation within the Gaia-x consortium.
About the latter... loads of small details here and there as discussed in the German IT press.
