Liquid Intelligent Technologies launches the first Microsoft Azure Stack in Uganda. The achievement is a significant milestone for Liquid Uganda as it can now enable local businesses to access cloud solutions that meet the local data regulatory requirements.
“The Azure Stack hub will be a game-changer for local businesses,” said Mr. Michael Mukasa, CEO of Liquid Intelligent Technologies Uganda. “It will provide them with cost-effective access to local cloud solutions, help them meet local data regulatory requirements, and enable them to run latency-sensitive business applications efficiently.”
Uganda has become the fifth country that Liquid has deployed Microsoft Azure Stack in Africa, which is indicative of their expertise in partnering with businesses of all sizes to digitally transform. “The Azure stack will not only benefit large enterprises but also accelerate cloud adoption among the Ugandan Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) through flexible adoption models.”
By investing in the first Azure Stack hub in Uganda, Liquid is demonstrating its commitment to the country’s digital transformation and actively supporting the Uganda Digital Transformation Roadmap, which aims to connect 90% of Ugandan households to the internet by 2040, a goal that Liquid is dedicated to helping achieve.
With this investment, Liquid has reaffirmed that the organization recognizes that every client is unique and is perfectly positioned to cater to companies of all sizes. The organization will empower its existing customers with a highly secure cloud solution, reduce latency, and enable real-time business continuity with flexible adoption models.
Liquid has been a pioneering force in Uganda’s connectivity and technological evolution for over 15 years. With the introduction of Azure Stack, the organization continues to trailblaze its way in bringing innovative technology to foster economic and technological advancement in the country and the East Africa region.
