Visibility, Automation, and Resilience for the Digital Era

Saudi Arabia’s cloud landscape is accelerating, driven by major investments like AWS’s USD 5.3B new region by 2026. With hybrid cloud at 59% and multicloud at 48%, organizations are expanding rapidly but still struggle to translate this growth into measurable business value. Challenges include maintaining visibility across distributed environments, ensuring strong security, planning cloud-ready business continuity, and proving ROI.

 

Enterprises need strategies that enable secure, scalable connectivity across cloud and edge, supported by intelligent operations, automation, and consistent governance.

 

This roundtable gathers senior IT leaders to discuss practical migration frameworks, modernization approaches that minimize disruption, resilient cloud-first continuity models, and data- and AI-driven automation from cloud to edge.
