European Cloud Computing Strategy (ECS)
Communication adopted on 27 September 2012, “Unleashing the potential of Cloud Computing in Europe”
Enabling and facilitating faster adoption of cloud computing
throughout all sectors of the economy
to help cut ICT costs and
boost productivity, growth and jobs
09/04/2023
ECS: Introduction and motivation Cloud Computing can deliver a
cumulative impact on GDP of 957 Billion € and 3,4 M jobs by 2020
ECS wants to achieve more clarity and knowledge about the applicable legal framework and developing it further.
Three actions to achieve this goal:
Cutting through the jungle of standards Safe and fair contract terms and conditions European Cloud Partnership for public sector
09/04/2023
ECS: General impact on users
Supply side: new opportunities for telcos, equipment, services providers
Demand side: Productivity potential for all; quicker and less risky professional IT for new users (e.g. start-ups)
09/04/2023
Key Action 1: Cutting through the Jungle of Standards
ETSI (European Telecoms Standards Institute) to coordinate stakeholders & identify necessary standards (e.g. for security and interoperability)
Recognise ICT technical specifications for data protection
ENISA & others to assist development of EU-wide voluntary certification schemes
Agree with industry harmonised metrics for energy consumption & carbon emissions of cloud services
09/04/2023
Key Action 2 : Safe and Fair Contract Terms
Develop with stakeholders model terms for cloud computing service level agreements for professional cloud users
European model contract terms and conditions pursuant to Common European Sales Law
Review standard contractual clauses & binding corporate rules for international data transfers by cloud providers
Work with industry towards a code of conduct for cloud providers for Article 29 Working Party to endorse
09/04/2023
Key Action 3: European Cloud Partnership
Identify common requirements for public sector cloud use Towards joint public procurement of cloud services Shape the market to benefit private use How?
Pre-Commercial Procurement Action with MS (FP7, EUR 10m call published), with industry input

Establishing a “Trusted Cloud Europe”
09/04/2023
Enable public sector cloud adoption in open dialogue between public sector and industry
Address concerns on data protection, security, legal and contractual aspects
Support related research from industry– Use of pre-commercial procurement as an
instrument for innovation in the public sector
09/04/2023
Expected Outcomes:
Public sector in Europe is empowered to procure cost-effective, secure and reliable cloud services
Pre-commercial procurement terms, do's and don'ts, opportunities and pitfalls are understood
Industry prepared through the PCP research and experience to meet public sector needs
