Based in Abu Dhabi, the fault-tolerant data centre is the first commercially-available facility of its kind outside of North America and will support reliable and secure IT managed services round the clock.
“We operate in a 24/7 service-oriented business environment that allows no room for service downtime. Through this agreement with Injazat, we are establishing a system that will ensure our continued success and raise the bar for telecom service levels in the UAE,” added Osman Sultan, CEO, du.
