Container platforms are used to manage and orchestrate containers. Containers are simple processes that are given their own environment through features in the Linux kernel without being virtualized. This allows processes to be started quickly and leanly while still retaining the benefits of encapsulation as with VMs. So you can easily launch hundreds of containers on a server, which would be nearly impossible with virtual machines. That is, when we talk about containers, we are generally talking about Linux processes.
The container platforms (also clusters) can be run on-premise or on cloud platforms. In addition to hyperscaler solutions (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), there are numerous on-premise providers.
Since it is a cloud technology, location and access to the data must be considered.
What is relevant - DSG or DSGVO? Where is the data located? Is it hosted in Switzerland (data is located locally), "swiss hosting" (access is only possible from Switzerland) or is the data located abroad? In the case of foreign data storage, the question of legal and regulatory consequences arises.
Swiss Solutions
Below you will find a list of Swiss providers. Clarify clearly your needs for data storage:
- Data in a non-EU country (check data protection carefully in each case)
- Data in the EU (DSGVO applies)
- Data in Switzerland (DSG obligation, DSGVO possible)
- "swiss hosting" (DSG obligation, DSGVO possible, only variant that blocks direct access by foreign authorities)
