When the Cloud Picks Sides: The Digital Sovereignty Reckoning | a Reflect Podcast by Ed Fassio
What happens when your cloud provider becomes your compliance officer?
In this episode of Reflect, Ed Fassio unpacks the startling real-world story of Nayara Energy—an Indian company abruptly cut off from Microsoft's cloud services, not because of any technical failure or violation, but due to a distant geopolitical entanglement.
This isn't just about one company. It's about a new era of infrastructure fragility, where terms of service override sovereignty and vendors can revoke your digital lifelines without notice.
From the architecture desk to the executive boardroom, this episode explores:
- Why DES providers and ISVs are now frontline players in geopolitical enforcement
- How cloud neutrality is becoming a myth
- What AI's growing role in automated compliance may mean for operational continuity
- And why resilience—not transformation—is the new strategic imperative
Ed blends narrative clarity, systemic foresight, and pragmatic recommendations in what may be one of the most urgent conversations yet for enterprise tech leaders.
