Raxio Data Centres has launched the indigenous ABQ
Cloud in Uganda in collaboration with Roke Cloud, the Ministry of Science,
Technology and Innovation, and other technology partners.
The new cloud platform is designed to support Uganda’s

sovereignty through secure, in-country data solutions.

enable scalable digital services and strengthen the country’s technology
ecosystem. The partners indicated that the platform will play a role in
supporting public sector digitization, private sector growth and emerging
technologies, including artificial intelligence.

deployment, focusing on accelerating national digital transformation through
resilient, locally managed cloud capabilities.
