Background
RESCUE: A RESilient Cloud for EUropE
A joint initiative to building the European Union's next-gen cloud migration platform.
What is the goal of RESCUE?
The goal of RESCUE is to create cyber-resistant digital twins for data centers and edges. Utilizing public cloud infrastructure, it aims to support security and business-critical applications at scale, incorporate the latest cybersecurity developments, ensure high availability across multiple regions for business continuity, introduce automation features, and enable dynamic movement of critical services.
Amadeus is a proponent of the RESCUE plan and endeavours to seeing to its success.

The European Union (EU)
European companies had a desire to build cloud and edge infrastructures and to develop and offer the associated services. But how best to accomplish this?
Digital sovereignty
With a sustainable digital ecosystem in mind, the process evolved into one of the basic pillars for a sustainable, resilient and future-proof economy and society in the EU. But how do we get countries to trust the evolving ecosystem?
IT security and resillience
Peace of mind is key. There is a requirement to have strong prerequisites for a high level of trust in the emerging European cloud and edge services. RESCUE alleviates your IT security concerns so you can gain peace of mind.
The IT security challenge
New infrastructure creates challenges for IT security. The need for resilience, as well as the sovereignty of the users of these new, open digital ecosystems is at the forefront of RESCUE.
Objectives
What does RESCUE hope to achieve?
The high‑level goal of "RESCUE ‑ a RESilient Cloud for EUropE" is the conceptual description and pilot construction of "cyber‑resistant digital twins for data centers and edges".
Inclusive
Aimed at everyone, especially critical infrastructures, but also other services that require a high level of reliability. The concepts described and implemented by RESCUE are universally applicable.
More flexibility
Utilize the infrastructure of the open cloud to allow the hosting of security and business‑critical applications on a large scale.
Cyber security
Supports the latest developments in cybersecurity.
Business continuity
A segmented and highly available environment to provide distribution across multiple regions for business continuity purposes
Automation
Introduction of unique automation features
Regional agility
Dynamically move critical services between regions to enable the set up and dismantling of less critical services such as test environments as needed
