**What it does not test.** It does not add any new computing capacity itself; it is a coordination and access gateway, not a supercomputer.

**How this item counts.** This item is dated before the index starts on 1 January 2026, so it does not count in the [European Sovereignty Index](https://sovereigntymonitor.eu/sovereignty-index/).
