EntryScape Catalog: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

EntryScape Catalog is a web application for managing and publishing open data: from describing datasets to sharing them on data portals. It follows the DCAT-AP metadata standard and offers collaborative authoring, configurable checklists for reviewing submitted datasets, and access to metadata through APIs, Linked Data and SPARQL. It is aimed at municipalities, public authorities and other organisations that need to catalogue datasets. EntryScape Catalog is delivered as a cloud service.

EntryScape is developed by MetaSolutions AB in Stockholm, Sweden. The source code of Catalog sits in a public repository under the AGPL-3.0, and the vendor describes EntryScape as open source. The main offering is the hosted service. According to MetaSolutions, all data is stored in Sweden, Finland and Germany with third-party providers that have EU-based ownership; the vendor does not name them. For an assessment, ask for the list of sub-processors and the data processing agreement.

Why digital sovereignty matters with EntryScape Catalog

EntryScape Catalog is headquartered in SE and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so EntryScape Catalog scores best on data residency.

EntryScape Catalog is open source. You can audit the source code, self-host the software and keep the encryption keys under your own control. Switching is easier because data and software are not tied to a single party.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs EntryScape Catalog together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
