The new AWS Middle East (UAE) Region is now open

Welcomes Launch of New AWS Middle East Region in the UAE

SEIDOR MENA welcomes the launch of AWS Middle East (UAE) Region, which will support the acceleration of innovation and digital transformation in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The new AWS Middle East (UAE) Region consists of three Availability Zones (AZs) and becomes AWS’s second region in the Middle East with the existing AWS Region in Bahrain, launched in 2019. The new AWS Region gives organizations even greater choice for running their applications and serving end users from data centers located in the UAE, using advanced AWS technologies to drive innovation.

We are excited to announce the new AWS Middle East (UAE) Region is now open! As an advanced AWS partner, we support our customers with the Cloud requirements. Read more about why to migrate to the cloud article https://www.seidor.com/en-ae/blog/when-migrate-cloud to understand more about AWS benefits and cost-effective solutions. If you are already on SAP or planning to implement the solutions, and are considering migrating to the cloud, then this information is for you.

AWS Regions are composed of Availability Zones that place infrastructure in separate and distinct geographic locations. Availability Zones are located far enough from each other to support customers’ business continuity but near enough to provide low latency for high availability applications that use multiple Availability Zones. Each Availability Zone has independent power, cooling, and physical security and is connected through redundant, ultra-low latency networks. Our customers focused on high availability can design their applications to run in multiple Availability Zones to achieve even greater fault tolerance. The launch of the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region will enable local customers with data residency requirements to store data securely in the UAE while providing customers with even lower latency across the country.

"We welcome the launch of AWS region in the UAE and are committed to helping customers in UAE deploy the most advanced cloud technologies and achieve the highest levels of security. Also, all our consultants are locally available and AWS-certified. What does it mean for UAE? This is how we interpret the region opening - a stronger tech community, Innovation, New Investments, and building the local expansion." said Ignacio Ruiz de Eguilaz, Managing Director of SEIDOR MENA
