How the Ministry of Communications & IT accelerated digital transformation, reduced costs, and positioned Saudi Arabia as a regional digital economy hub.
Legacy systems and disconnected IT infrastructure slowed the adoption of emerging technologies and digital transformation initiatives.
Existing data centers lacked efficiency, scalability, and resilience needed to support national digital economy ambitions.
Fragmented systems prevented seamless data exchange and hindered cross-ministry digital modernization efforts.
Migrated ministry functions to AI-powered enterprise automation platforms, streamlining licensing, approvals, and citizen service workflows.
Adopted hybrid and multi-cloud architectures combining STC Cloud, AWS, Azure, and GCP to reinforce sovereignty while enabling elastic scaling.
Built optimized green data centers with energy-efficient compute, liquid cooling, and sustainability telemetry aligned with Saudi Green Initiative.
Established unified data exchange, security layers, and Zero-Trust architecture across all ministry systems with comprehensive IAM and API management.
