Saudi Aramco Development Company (SADC), a subsidiary of Aramco, announced that it had teamed up with Google Cloud to offer high-performance and low-latency cloud services to enterprise customers in SaudiArabia.
The Kingdom is being added to the global network of Google Cloud Platform regions, as part of a strategic alliance agreement signed between Aramco and Google Cloud this month.
Google Cloud will establish and operate a new cloud region in Saudi Arabia, while a new company will be formed to supply cloud solutions and services to enterprise customers, with an emphasis on businesses inside the Kingdom.
The collaboration taps into rapidly expanding cloud services demand in Saudi Arabia, which is forecasted to reach a market opportunity of up to $10 billion by 2030.
Covid-19 has also contributed to the increased dependence on online services and digital solutions.
