MDXi, a MainOne company, has launched Microsoft’s Azure cloud infrastructure platform, MDXi’s Azure Stack, at its Appolonia Data Center.

The company said in a statement that customers in Ghana could now enjoy a single-vendor platform across cloud and on-premises data centres enabling seamless deployment of their applications in-country while meeting their various business requirements.

According to the statement, MDXi Azure Stack delivers the same cloud experience that is available on the Public Azure platform from the Appolonia Data Center.

The Country Manager of MainOne Ghana, Emmanuel Kwarteng, said the cloud service hosted in Ghana will deliver reliability to increase business efficiency of enterprises across all sectors of the economy.

He said, “The new MDXi Azure Stack platform will offer businesses the choice of a scalable, flexible computing platform to enable the migration of critical applications from legacy technology to modernised technology without having to store their data offshore.”

According to the company, the MDXi Azure Stack software is managed by Microsoft, while its hardware platform is managed by HPE, which ensures 24/7 maintenance and guarantees no single point of failure.

It added that the technology had been deployed at MDXi in Nigeria for two years where it had provided reliable cloud services for some of the largest enterprises and multinationals operating in the country.
