Why a Reference Architecture?

The digital future of Europe requires a cohesive and interoperable infrastructure, one that spans cloud and edge environments, integrates AI and data services, and ensures security, sustainability, and sovereignty across borders. To support this, the IPCEI-CIS Reference Architecture (ICRA) defines a common framework for designing, deploying, and operating cloud-edge systems in a federated, multi-provider landscape, representing a strategic instrument within the 8ra Initiative.
