Zoom Communications has announced the launch of a new data center in Saudi Arabia, reinforcing its commitment to expanding its regional investments and meeting the growing demand for digital services and cloud-based solutions across the Kingdom.<\/p>\n

The new facility was inaugurated during a ceremony held at Bab Samhan Hotel, attended by government officials, institutional leaders, and company executives, highlighting the Kingdom\u2019s continued focus on strengthening its digital infrastructure and accelerating technological transformation.<\/p>\n

Locally Hosted Services for Greater Efficiency<\/h3>\n

Mohannad Al-Kalash, Zoom\u2019s Vice President for the Middle East, T\u00fcrkiye, Africa and Pakistan, stated that the new data center will allow the company to deliver its services directly from within Saudi Arabia, including Unified Communications as a Service and Contact Center as a Service solutions.<\/p>\n

He noted that local hosting capabilities will enable Zoom to better serve customers while meeting data residency requirements and enhancing operational efficiency for organizations across the Kingdom.<\/p>\n

The facility is hosted within the infrastructure of center3, one of the region\u2019s leading providers of carrier-neutral data centers and subsea cable systems connecting Europe, Asia, and Africa.<\/p>\n

Strengthening AI and Cloud Infrastructure Investments<\/h3>\n

The launch follows Zoom\u2019s broader investment strategy in Saudi Arabia, including a previously announced $75 million commitment focused on artificial intelligence innovation and the advanced infrastructure required to support future digital growth.<\/p>\n

The new center is expected to support Zoom\u2019s expanding customer base by providing secure, locally hosted communication and collaboration tools through advanced cloud infrastructure.<\/p>\n

According to Al-Kalash, Zoom currently serves more than 350 million users globally every day, and the new facility will strengthen the company\u2019s ability to support customers throughout Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East region.<\/p>\n

Supporting Vision 2030 Goals<\/h3>\n

The project builds upon Zoom\u2019s regional data center launched in partnership with Aramco in 2023 and aligns with Saudi Arabia\u2019s Vision 2030 digital transformation objectives.<\/p>\n

The facility is expected to enhance data residency, cybersecurity, compliance, and cloud capabilities for businesses and organizations operating in the Kingdom.<\/p>\n

It also reflects the growing confidence of global technology companies in Saudi Arabia as a regional hub for innovation, cloud computing, and digital infrastructure, further strengthening the Kingdom\u2019s position as a leading technology destination in the region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
