The implementation of the Decree No. 718 of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, dated 3 June 2019, "On measures for the establishment of the Government Cloud (G-cloud) and the provision of cloud services," is ongoing.
As part of the implementation of the Decree, the Executive Authority of Sumgayit City, as well as the Executive Authorities of Salyan, Shamkir, Agsu and Hajigabul districts, have migrated their information systems and IT resources to the “Government Cloud”.
The above-mentioned executive authorities have hosted their IT resources at the Baku Main Data Center operated by “AzInTelecom” LLC. As part of the migration, “AzInTelecom” provided the institutions with Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) virtual server services, enabling them to achieve high availability for their critical systems.
It should be noted that, within the framework of the “Government Cloud” project, government institutions are carrying out the full or partial migration of their IT systems to “AzInTelecom” data centres. As a result, institutions reduce their operational IT costs while improving the performance of their information systems. They also benefit from a secure and resilient IT infrastructure, as well as 24/7 monitoring services.
“AzInTelecom” LLC, a company within AZCON Holding, operates its cloud services in accordance with the international TIER III standard.
