Sovereign AI Landing Zone

European organisations rarely fail at generative AI for lack of models. They fail because the first working prototype cannot be put into production: there is no account structure, no private path to the model, no key management story, no logging that would survive an audit, and no answer to the question of where the data actually goes. This service removes that gap by delivering the platform first, so that use cases deploy onto a foundation instead of being rebuilt each time.

SNS deploys a standardised, blueprint-based landing zone in eight to twelve weeks. The foundation is a multi-account structure with AWS Control Tower, AWS Organizations and AWS IAM Identity Center, enforcing separation between platform, development and production workloads. Model access to Amazon Bedrock runs privately over AWS PrivateLink, with encryption under customer-managed keys in AWS KMS. A working retrieval stack is delivered on Amazon S3, Amazon OpenSearch Serverless and Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases, and agentic workloads run on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore, AWS Lambda and AWS Step Functions. Because the blueprint is infrastructure as code, every further use case reuses the same controls rather than negotiating them again.

Sovereignty is handled by architecture, not by assertion. Data, model invocations and logs remain under European jurisdiction, with deployment in eu-central-1, eu-central-2 or the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, and extension to on-premises workloads via AWS Outposts and Amazon EKS where data cannot leave the customer datacenter. This service relates to the following AWS services: Amazon Bedrock including Guardrails, Knowledge Bases, AgentCore and Flows, Amazon SageMaker AI, AWS Control Tower, AWS Organizations, AWS IAM Identity Center, AWS KMS, AWS CloudHSM, AWS PrivateLink, AWS Transit Gateway, Amazon VPC, Amazon S3, Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, AWS Lambda, AWS Step Functions, Amazon EKS, AWS Service Catalog, AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK, AWS CloudTrail, AWS Config, AWS Security Hub, AWS Audit Manager, AWS Outposts and AWS Direct Connect. SNS acts as single point of contact for the entire delivery and can hand over to SLA-based managed operations.
