A vacancy at a large hospital, for example, where a BI developer is happily sought to help roll out a data strategy\u00a0 <strong>in the U.S. Cloud<\/strong>. This is not an incident, this is a pattern. Government institutions and semi-governments are falling en masse into the trap of American hyperscalers, with all the risks that this entails.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"284\" data-end=\"758\"><em data-start=\"686\" data-end=\"756\">\u201cWhoever is dependent on another will sooner or later lose control.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<hr data-start=\"760\" data-end=\"763\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"765\" data-end=\"793\">The insidious hostage-taking<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"794\" data-end=\"1208\">Hospitals, municipalities, provinces, ministries; The list is endless. While European alternatives exist, people continue to gaze blindly at the glossy brochures of Microsoft and Amazon. The argument is always the same: convenience, scalability, cost. But ease turns into dependency, and dependency becomes digital hostage-taking.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"794\" data-end=\"1208\"><em data-start=\"1141\" data-end=\"1206\">\u201cCheap in the tender becomes expensive in sovereignty.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<hr data-start=\"1210\" data-end=\"1213\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1215\" data-end=\"1246\">The Illusion of Security<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1247\" data-end=\"1689\">As if it's not enough that the data of millions of citizens end up on servers that the U.S. Cloud Act always hangs above, this is often presented as a secure choice. Compliance is confused with control. But real security means that you decide where your data is, and who has access to it. That is simply not the case here.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1247\" data-end=\"1689\"><em data-start=\"1607\" data-end=\"1687\">\u2018A key in your own hand is safer than a password in someone else\u2019s safe.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<hr data-start=\"1691\" data-end=\"1694\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1696\" data-end=\"1736\">The demand for responsibility<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1737\" data-end=\"2098\">Who takes responsibility for these choices? Directors point to procurement rules, suppliers to customer requirements, and consultants to international standards. Meanwhile, our digital autonomy is disappearing like snow in the sun.

It's geopolitical, it's autonomy, it's civil rights protection. We have European alternatives. It's just a matter of choosing. Or do we not dare?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2140\" data-end=\"2476\"><em data-start=\"2398\" data-end=\"2474\">\u201cDigital sovereignty is not a luxury, but a precondition for freedom.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2140\" data-end=\"2476\">Source: freelance.nl<\/p>\n<p>19 Sep 2025<br \/>\nIn consultation, Gelderland<br \/>\nStart as soon as possible<br \/>\n3 months<br \/>\n32 \u2013 36 hours per week<br \/>\n\u20ac 90.00 \u2013 \u20ac 95.00 per hour<br \/>\nFreelance<br \/>\nDeveloped by Business Intelligence (BI)<\/p>\n<p>A modern, top clinical hospital in the Nijmegen region. Delivering with a high level of knowledge and expertise<br \/>\nWe provide excellent care. Our 4000 employees and many volunteers form an inspiring environment for<br \/>\nEveryone who works there. In our organization we challenge you to go for the best possible. Ambition and<br \/>\nEnthusiasm goes hand in hand.<\/p>\n<p>The lines are short, well-known and unknown colleagues are easy to approach and the atmosphere is informal. There is<br \/>\nAn eye for man. You see that personal in direct care, where our involvement becomes enormous<br \/>\nappreciated. As an employee, you contribute to this in every contact with the patient. But also in functions without<br \/>\nDirect patient contact contributes to this personal atmosphere. As we deal with<br \/>\nPatients, this is how we treat each other.<\/p>\n<p>As an employer, we want to offer you what is important to you. So many people, so many differences.

Also outside the organization<br \/>\nThere are opportunities. For example, we work closely with fellow hospitals and other external organisations.

Our open view of the outside world offers<br \/>\nbenefits for patients and opportunities for employees.
