According to the agreement, they will establish a data center and a cloud computing infrastructure in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. The data center and cloud computing infrastructure will provide Saudi Arabia and its neighboring countries with integrated solutions including big data, storage, network coverage, and database services, aiming to support the growing business demand for Internet, health care, and financial services industries under the context of digitalization.
According to the Nansha Government, Aofei International is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guangdong Aofei Data Technology, which was registered in Guangzhou's Nansha in 2004. Aofei Data's business has been expanded to more than 30 Chinese cities, as well as more than 10 countries and regions overseas. It constructed and has been operating a number of digital infrastructure industrial parks at home and abroad.
Yang Peifeng, CEO of Aofei International, said that the Middle East has been an important market for the company. The cooperation with Ajlan & Bros Holding Group, one of the largest private enterprises in the Middle East region, and BaishanCloud, a cloud data service provider from China's Guizhou province, was of mutual benefits and the three parties will take advantage of each other's specialities in terms of capital, technology, market, and operation.
In addition, the project will provide Saudi Arabian customers with cloud computing services that meet international standards of universality, security, and stability, and will also satisfy the data service needs of Chinese enterprises in Saudi Arabia.
