Digital sovereignty is about maintaining control of critical systems by limiting reliance on any single vendor. Open standards and portable architectures reduce lock‑in and keep migration options open, even when providers change pricing, licensing, or viability. Full independence is impossible, but disciplined design and clear guardrails strengthen resilience.
