it-sa 2026 Resilient by design. Sovereign by choice!

Cyberattacks, increasing regulatory requirements, and the use of artificial intelligence present new challenges for companies:

  • How can we reliably protect our data?
  • How can we remain capable of taking action even in an emergency?
  • How can we create an IT infrastructure that combines security, control, and innovation?

Digital sovereignty starts with the hardware

At it-sa 2026, together with our partner Scality, we will demonstrate how sovereign storage and hardware infrastructures lay the foundation for cyber-resilient and future-proof IT environments. With ConStraight as a co-exhibitor and AMD as a technology partner, we’re bringing together a wide range of expertise—from software-defined object storage to high-performance server and storage systems, and sovereign private cloud solutions.

Visit us at Booth 214 in Hall 7A and discover how you can protect your data, maintain control over your IT, and prepare your infrastructure for future needs.

The Sovereignty Arena Share knowledge. Understand solutions. Shape sovereignty.

 

What does digital sovereignty mean for your IT in practical terms?
What role do modern storage architectures play in protecting against cyberattacks?
And how can you build a secure, on-premises AI infrastructure?

Right in the middle of our booth, we’re teaming up with Scality, Constraight, and AMD to create a special gathering place: the Sovereignty Arena. In concise technical presentations, our experts will provide insights into the latest technologies, specific use cases, and solutions for greater security and control over your data.

Whether you're an IT decision-maker, CISO, IT security manager, infrastructure architect, or system integrator: Here you'll find inspiration for your next IT projects and the opportunity to discuss your questions directly with the experts.

Here's what you can expect:

  • Technical presentations on cyber resilience, sovereign object storage, and private cloud infrastructures
  • Insights into Modern Storage Architectures and Secure AI Applications
  • Concrete Solutions for On-Premises, Hybrid, and Cloud Environments
  • Direct communication with technology experts from Scality, Pyramid, Constraight, and AMD
  • A small, informal discussion group with a maximum of ten participants per session

The special bonus: During our relaxed lunchtime session, we’ll provide the perfect refreshments with high-quality finger food.
