The expansion includes solutions for small, medium, and large enterprises

Manama, Bahrain: Batelco, keen on empowering businesses to digitise their processes and improve their operational efficiencies, now offers services on Cloud-based solutions. Batelco is the first in the Kingdom to provide such services, where customers interested are invited to request a Cloud experience. This also comes at a time where Batelco is focusing more on the Small Medium Enterprise (SME) sector in Bahrain, while also reinforcing its offerings for large enterprises.

Batelco has a team of technical experts offering Cloud consultation services for both Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs), and for large corporations.  The telecom's experts are available to customise innovative solutions for businesses to enhance their digitisation efforts.

As the innovation driver in Bahrain, Batelco was the first in the Kingdom to launch a series of Cloud-based services. The telecom's comprehensive Cloud portfolio boasts a range of services for enterprises such as Cloud eCommerce, Security as a Service, Software as a Service, Cloud Infrastructure as a Service, and Cloud Collaboration Services. All are solidified by Batelco's widely acclaimed Information and Communication Technology (ICT) services. To suit the organisations' diverse needs, Batelco offers enterprises the ability to fully customise the specifications for these services, as well as store any data they deem necessary.

Batelco recognises the importance of having all Cloud services available on a secure platform that is protected against vulnerabilities. As such, Batelco's expansion includes DDoS mitigation solutions and a Vulnerability Management System for increased web security. 

The national telecom operator reiterates the alignment of its goals to those of the Kingdom of Bahrain's and emphasises its support towards the digitisation drive in Bahrain.  As demonstrated by the prestigious ICT award given to HRH the Prime Minister Shaikh Khalifa Bin Salman Al Khalifa by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Bahrain is a leader in shaping the digital services market in the region.
