The Public Health Authority of Frankfurt is a new global Red Hat success story - featuring VSHN 🎉 GA-Lotse, a federated open source platform for 25 health authorities in Hesse, runs as a managed service by VSHN on Red Hat OpenShift, hosted on Exoscale. www.vshn.ch/en/blog/sove...

"Buy European" isn't enough. "Buy Swiss" isn't either. A Swiss flag on the invoice doesn't equal sovereignty. The real question: can you replace your vendor without replacing the technology underneath? Open source. Operational control. Governance over geography. www.vshn.ch/en/blog/why-...

Great discussions around cloud, AI, and digital sovereignty at the Switch Cloud Forward Forum Day 2026. ☁️🇨🇭 We shared a joint use case with Exoscale and HIN on building sovereign cloud platforms with open technologies. Read the recap 👇 www.vshn.ch/en/blog/swit... #CloudNative #DigitalSovereignty

Running LLMs in production is very different from running traditional software. AI systems are probabilistic, harder to test, and require much stronger observability. How Kubernetes, Kubeflow and KServe help solve this 👇 👉 www.vshn.ch/en/blog/devo... #Kubernetes #AI #LLM #DevOps #CloudNative

Kubernetes powers much of today’s digital infrastructure. But Kubernetes alone isn’t enough. Running it in production requires networking, storage, observability, security, upgrades, & operational processes. In this post we look at Kubernetes distributions in 2026: www.vshn.ch/en/blog/best...
