If you pay for operations by the hour, you've hired someone who isn't motivated to automate - because their revenue drops every time they do.

That's not a knock on any provider. It's just arithmetic.

Our new post walks through why the pricing model behind "operations" matters more than most contracts admit:

- Time & materials rewards presence, not outcomes
- Per-ticket rewards fixing incidents, not preventing them
- Fixed fee per service level is the only model where automation pays the provider back

Plus the exit question almost nobody asks: when you leave, do you get the automation that ran your service - or just a database dump?

🚀 Cloud Native Computing Meetup | November 17th

The September CNC meetup is fully booked (thanks for the enthusiasm!), but we're already planning the next one for Tuesday, Nov 17 at 3pm at Open Systems AG in Zürich. Three talk slots, one evening of cloud-native knowledge, and plenty of networking.

We're looking for speakers! Do you have a project, insight, or story from the cloud-native ecosystem you'd like to share? We want to hear from you.

Submit your talk proposal: https://www.cnc-meetup.ch/

Event details:
📍 Open Systems AG, Räffelstrasse 29, Zürich
🕒 Nov 17, 3-6pm CET
📹 Event will be recorded and shared on VSHN's YouTube channel (vshn.tv)

Swiss Cloud Native Day is back on the Gurten on 17 September, and so are we.

Sixth edition, 250 participants, two tracks, and a funicular ride up a mountain outside Bern. It's run by the nonprofit association bernerit.rocks and built for the people who actually operate these technologies in production. That's why we keep sponsoring it.

Where to find VSHN:

📍 Our booth in the Uptown area, right next to one of the two session rooms 🎤 A VSHN sponsor talk (time, room and topic to follow) 🍻 Drinks and party in the Pavillon from 18:00

Worth noting: the sovereignty thread runs through this year's entire programme. Confidential computing, the paradox of cloud sovereignty, supply chain security. It's also the question behind Servala, our sovereign app store. Come and take the idea apart with us over a coffee.

We have been running the Cloud Native Computing Switzerland meetup for nearly a decade. Over 3'000 members and more than 50 meetups later, the next one is on Tuesday, 15 September at the VSHNtower in Zürich.

Three talks:

▸ How to: securing your clusters
Benjamin Koltermann, cenroq AG. Everyone wants secure Kubernetes clusters, hardly anyone really gets there. How clusters get compromised despite configurations that look solid on paper, and how to find those gaps before someone else does.

▸ Paddelbuch: How Kiro Changed the Game
Chris Bingham, CTO Switzerland at Fujitsu. What happened to paddelbuch.ch after Kiro arrived, and how one unexpected conversation at re:Invent 2025 changed its technical foundation.

▸ A swiss, cloud-native alternative to Vercel and Heroku
Christian Blättler, zeitlos.software. Lucity brings the Vercel developer experience to plain Kubernetes and Helm, with one hard rule: you can eject at any time.

The CNC Meetup is a neutral place for the Swiss tech community, not a stage for sales pitches. Free entry, apéro included, and every talk gets recorded and published on vshn.tv.

Room capacity is limited and the last editions filled up quite quickly. Full program and registration:

"Sovereignty is an architecture question, not a legal one."

That's the line from Aarno Aukia's keynote that keeps coming up in conversations with customers, so here it is to watch in full:

🎥 Digital Neutrality: Switzerland's Engineering Advantage
https://buff.ly/iK5i9F7

What he unpacks in it:

→ Why neutrality is something you engineer into a system, not something you certify after the fact
→ Where dependency actually gets created (control planes, identity, tooling, support contracts) and why the data location debate distracts from it
→ What Switzerland has structurally that most markets don't, and why that advantage expires if nobody builds on it
→ How to tell the difference between a sovereign platform and a sovereign-flavoured marketing page

If you're currently sitting in a hyperscaler exit discussion, or defending one to your board, this is a useful 20 minutes.

Recorded at Swiss Software Festival 2026.

Digital asset platforms sit at a rare intersection: regulated discipline meets open-source speed.

At the Open Source in Finance Forum London 2026, VSHN's Liene Luksika shared lessons from operating a regulated digital asset platform on open, cloud-native infrastructure - what worked, and what didn't.

Three patterns kept showing up across regulated financial infrastructure:

- Stable core, agile edge - proven core systems stay untouched while a cloud-native layer iterates fast at the edge
- Delegate platform ops, own your core - everyone focuses on what they do best, which concentrates compliance burden onto whoever can carry it
- Evolutionary migration, not big bang - you don't need the full managed stack on day one, but you do need to design the handoff path from the start

She also didn't stop at the success story. Open questions worth probing: did key migrations happen too late, how do you keep consistency at global scale, and what should an RFP really screen for beyond technical specs?

"Buy European" isn't enough. "Buy Swiss" isn't either.

In his latest blog post, Aarno Aukia connects UCL economist Cecilia Rikap's concept of "epistemic capture" to what we see every day running infrastructure for regulated Swiss organizations: a Swiss flag on the invoice doesn't equal sovereignty. Neither does a French AI model running on Azure.

The real question isn't where your vendor is headquartered. It's whether you can replace them without replacing the technology underneath.

Three things actual sovereignty requires:
→ Open-source foundations you can audit, modify, and migrate away from (Thomas Wüst, ti&m CEO, shares how forced vendor migrations pushed them toward open source)
→ Operational control over the runtime, not just data location
→ Governance and accountability over geography

Also featured: Penny Schiffer's view from UBS on scaling AI adoption, and why the gap between leaders and the rest of Swiss IT is widening.

The Switch Cloud Forward Forum Day 2026 brought together cloud providers, technology partners, and the Swiss higher education community to discuss the future of cloud, AI, and digital sovereignty. ☁️🇨🇭

We had the opportunity to present a joint use case with Exoscale and HIN, showing how Swiss organizations can move beyond vendor lock-in towards secure, sovereign cloud platforms built on open technologies.

A big thank you to Switch for organizing another excellent event and to everyone who stopped by for the great discussions throughout the day.

Read our recap for the key takeaways, impressions, and highlights from the event:
