Cloud2Space4AI: Connecting Cloud, Marketplaces, Data Spaces and AI for Accelerated Innovation

Cloud2Space4AI is an initiative designed to connect cloud providers, service and data marketplaces, data spaces, and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions to create a decentralised and secure ecosystem. By linking cloud platforms to data spaces, the project promotes interoperability, digital sovereignty, and the automation of data exchanges.

With the support of the Digital Europe Programme and the integration of Prometheus-X open-source solutions, Cloud2Space4AI enables AI agents to access diverse datasets — including private and personal data — in compliance with European regulations, thus accelerating innovation in artificial intelligence. This Cloud-AI-marketplace connection ensures secure access to strategic resources.

Objectives of the Cloud2Space4AI Project

$

Create seamless interoperability between cloud services and data spaces to ensure secure and transparent data access.

$

Facilitate access for AI providers to data spaces by establishing a compliant and secure framework for using private and personal data.

$

Automate data exchanges and contractual processes through integrated mechanisms for governance and compliance.

$

Strengthen innovation and competitiveness in European companies by facilitating access to high-quality datasets for training AI models.

$

Align Cloud and AI ecosystems with European standards (GAIA-X, EDC, Simpl, IDSA) to ensure broad compatibility and adoption.

Toward a Unified Digital Infrastructure: Cloud, AI, and Marketplaces Connected Through Data Spaces

The future of digital services relies on a distributed infrastructure where cloud services, AI solutions, and marketplaces are no longer siloed, but interconnected via sovereign, interoperable data spaces.

Within the Cloud2Space4AI framework, this vision becomes reality:

– Cloud providers become gateways to data spaces, expanding the reach of their services.

– AI solutions access structured, traceable, and compliant data, free from technical or legal lock-in.

– Marketplaces evolve into dynamic ecosystems capable of orchestrating cloud services, AI tools, and data resources within a single contractual framework.

Thanks to the VisionsTrust infrastructure, this interconnection becomes operational. It enables organisations to build modular, secure data-driven value chains. Backed by Visions, this approach paves the way for a service-based data economy where cloud providers, AI vendors, and project leaders collaborate via a shared, ethical, and competitive infrastructure.

Cloud2Space4AI: A Key Project for Cloud-AI-Marketplace Interoperability

Cloud and AI providers often work in silos, resulting in limited synergies and slowed innovation. Cloud2Space4AI removes these barriers by building an integrated and interoperable model.

Cloud providers become gateways to global, secure data space networks.

Data spaces offer structured access to private data, enriching AI with high-quality datasets.

AI providers gain legal access to diverse data, boosting their capabilities.

Marketplaces play a central role by orchestrating access to cloud services, AI models, and data assets within a unified, automated contractual environment.
