The move strengthens Huawei Cloud\u2019s presence in the Kingdom through a localized distribution model aligned with regulatory and operational requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the agreement, GAPP\u2019s partner network will gain structured access to Huawei Cloud\u2019s full portfolio. This includes AI capabilities, cloud-native infrastructure, and disaster recovery solutions. As a result, local resellers and enterprises will be able to adopt cloud technologies more efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, Hugo Hu, CEO of Huawei Cloud Saudi Arabia, said the partnership enables GAPP and local resellers to unlock three key advantages. These include access to a high-growth path in cloud and AI, improved profit margins, and long-term customer value through recurring services and enterprise and government engagements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, GAPP brings over a decade of experience in Saudi Arabia. Its operations span sectors such as financial services, utilities, industrial, education, hospitality, and telecommunications. Therefore, its established ecosystem is expected to accelerate cloud adoption across industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, Ahmed Alazmah, COO of GAPP, highlighted the importance of secure and scalable technology. He noted that combining Huawei\u2019s solutions with local expertise will simplify digital transformation for Saudi businesses and support sustainable growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, National Technology Development Program continues to play a role in shaping the ecosystem. Khalid M. Almutawa, General Manager of Entrepreneurship at NTDP, emphasized that partnerships like this contribute to Vision 2030 by enabling innovation, supporting startups, and building national tech capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, the collaboration is supported by Huawei Cloud\u2019s Riyadh region infrastructure. It operates on a three-availability-zone architecture, ensuring high availability and business continuity. The platform also holds a Class C Cloud Service Provider license from the Communications, Space and Technology Commission, meeting stringent data protection standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of AI, the partnership will expand access to Huawei Cloud\u2019s Model-as-a-Service platform. This includes advanced models such as DeepSeek-V4 and GLM-5.1. These tools are designed to accelerate AI application development while supporting Arabic-language and sector-specific use cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Dyna.ai has already deployed Huawei Cloud infrastructure to build an AI voice agent platform. Similarly, Arabic-language intelligent call center solutions are gaining traction across industries, reflecting growing AI adoption in the Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the partnership reinforces a focus on resilience and continuity. Huawei Cloud\u2019s regional architecture spans Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, and the UAE. It delivers high service availability, including cross-cloud SLAs, rapid failover, and disaster recovery capabilities. Collaborations with NAS Solutions further enhance recovery efficiency across multi-cloud environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the agreement reflects a shared focus on ecosystem development and localized innovation. It ensures that enterprises in Saudi Arabia can access advanced technologies tailored to local needs. As adoption accelerates, <a href=\"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/?s=huawei\">Huawei<\/a> Cloud is positioning itself as a key enabler of digital transformation in the Kingdom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Huawei Cloud has announced a strategic partnership with GAPP, appointing [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":105535,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64,9661],"tags":[1072,77,73,1051],"contributor":[],"class_list":["post-105533","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-distributors","category-tech-value-chain","tag-cloud","tag-technology","tag-uae","tag-vendors"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Huawei.jpg-1.jpeg","author_info":{"display_name":"Rabab","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/rabab\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105533","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105533"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105533\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":105534,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105533\/revisions\/105534"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/105535"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105533"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105533"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105533"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=105533"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
