The collaboration combines OpenText’s enterprise information management expertise with Google Cloud’s AI and infrastructure technologies to help organizations solve complex business challenges with confidence and agility.

This joint offering delivers advanced encryption and data protection for sensitive data at rest, in transit, and as it feeds AI models–ensuring compliance with evolving privacy regulations.


Sovereign Cloud and AI: Empowering Customers with Control, Choice and Security Across the Globe

To meet the growing importance of data sovereignty, OpenText’s Private Cloud offerings now integrate with Google Cloud’s Sovereign Cloud solutions. This enables organizations in regulated industries to meet stringent compliance requirements while maintaining control over where and how their data is stored and processed.
