stc Cloud — Saudi Arabia AI Data Centers
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Saudi Telecom Company’s cloud arm, stc Cloud, operates Saudi Arabia’s largest national cloud infrastructure, serving as the backbone for the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 digital transformation. The Riyadh data centers house AI workloads for Saudi government agencies, banks, and telecoms implementing AI-powered services. stc Cloud has partnered with major hyperscalers — Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle — to offer hybrid cloud services while maintaining Saudi data residency requirements. The infrastructure also supports HUMAIN, Saudi Arabia’s new state AI company launched in 2024, which is building Arabic-language foundation models for deployment across the Gulf region. Saudi Arabia’s National Data Management Office mandates that sensitive government data remain in-country, making stc Cloud a critical part of the Kingdom’s AI sovereignty strategy.
