A full house at Nextcloud Enterprise Day Vienna 2026.
The strong turnout and discussions throughout the day show clearly how important digital sovereignty, open collaboration, and independent IT infrastructures have become.
Our session with Birthe Lindenthal (OpenProject) and Clément Aubin (@xwiki) sparked great conversations on moving beyond Jira and Confluence with open source solutions.
Great to be part of it.
The US Congress Judiciary Committee is pushing US tech companies, such as Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, TikTok and X, to provide access to ALL communications with European Commission officials that relate to the enforcement of EU digital rules, in letters sent Monday. 🚨🇪🇺
The committee said its subpoenas require that documents are not deleted or modified, and that it expects “full compliance.”
Behold, the CLOUD act in practice.
We're excited to be working with real-cis. Together, we're building a solid foundation to ensure OpenCloud can be operated securely and transparently even in environments with increased security requirements, from the platform right through to the operating environment.

EU AI Act? ... August 1st is coming.
11,276 docs assimilated into the Lorenz Data Repository. 0% Cloud. 100% Local Hardware.
Don't settle for "Probabilistic" guesses. Our Forensic Tab shows the sub-step reasoning behind every fact.
Can YOUR AI do that?
The US Cloud Act subpoenas stop right here. 🇳🇱⚖️
Thanks all .. I have a dataset, which I created in order to test my latest development, I think the community might find it useful ... Essentially its a synthetic "4 years in the life on an SME" .. 60k inter-related documents with a timeline and history.
I have to clean up some errors in the "Corporate DNA" definition, but when i get my head out of the big project, I will definitely tidy iy up and put it into circulation.
To test my current AI development, i had to build a test dataset. it's a 60,000 document synthetic dataset representing 4 years in the life of an imaginary SME ..
It needs some polishing, but once I am done i am considering making the company dna, the prompt data and the code available for others to test their AI development. I'm an Open Source noob, so any advice would be very welcome.
Would the community be interested?

Hello,
This week I got to thinking ..
I have always been "afraid of" joining the Open Source community. I guess it's an old-fashioned fear of losing my ideas. That and the fact that working for Shell, Verity, Network Appliance, Telespazio and ESA, I am so used to working with secrets and exclusive IP ... I don't have any idea how to get involved.
Is there anyone who wants to give me advice? Your comments would be very welcome.
