Summary
Germany's federal government and 16 Länder, led by the IT Planning Council, have confirmed that ZaPuK (a Matrix-based communication platform) will be a core component of the Deutschland-Stack (D-Stack) — Germany's national sovereign technology platform. The D-Stack aims to consolidate Germany's fragmented federal, state, and municipal IT systems into a unified digital operating system by 2028. ZaPuK, built on the open Matrix protocol, provides secure, decentralized, and sovereign communication infrastructure for the entire German public administration, enabling interoperability across all levels of government while maintaining data sovereignty and security standards.
