Oman Data Park (ODP), the leading provider of cloud services and data centres in the sultanate, and Intro Technology, a significant division of Intro Holding, have inked a historic Memorandum of Understanding to establish Kemet Data Centre in the Suez Canal Economic Zone with an investment of USD 450 million.
To deliver cloud solutions, Internet of Things (IoT), and digital transformation for regional and global markets, especially in Africa and the Middle East, the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) marks the first strategic collaboration between the two businesses.
There are two phases to the development of the 80,000-square-metre Kemet Data Centre. For companies seeking more affordable, scalable cloud solutions, quicker data processing, and reduced latency, all necessary elements for enhancing user experience and boosting productivity, it will offer vital infrastructure.
The centre is the perfect platform for businesses looking for safe and effective cloud-based operations because of its advantageous location in Egypt and state-of-the-art digital infrastructure. The facility will use solar energy as part of its sustainability initiative, lowering its carbon footprint while providing state-of-the-art services.
“This strategic collaboration with Intro Technology marks a significant milestone for Oman Data Park as we expand our presence in the region. The Kemet Data Centre will not only enhance our capability to serve the growing demand for digital transformation but will also contribute to the economic development of the Middle East,” Engineer Maqbool Al Wahaibi, CEO of Oman Data Park said, as reported by Zawya.
“We are proud to bring our expertise in cloud services and data centre management to this project and look forward to creating innovative solutions that meet the evolving needs of businesses globally,” the senior official added.
Oman Data Park is contributing commercial services to the project, managing the centre’s daily operations, supervising the design, and offering advice on construction.
This partnership demonstrates ODP’s continued efforts to assist the area’s economic development and digital transformation, enhancing the company’s standing as a major participant in the cloud services and technology industries.
