Linux, data sovereignty, your own systems.
For SMEs and NGOs, via alpineminds. Technical sovereignty without Big-Tech dependency — scalable and documented.
If you don’t control your data, you don’t control your strategy. That’s not a slogan — it’s arithmetic. An SME that stores its processes in a US cloud has built a strategic dependency without noticing.
IT mandates go through alpineminds GmbH — Desirée Hartmann and Brigitte Cadisch. Same stance, coordinated entry point. We build systems that belong to the client: own servers, open protocols, documented handovers.
No vendor lock-in, no dependency on SaaS subscriptions that can change at any time. Less exciting than product demos. More robust over five years.
“Data sovereignty is a phrase that fits on PowerPoint slides and rarely happens in practice.”
