Oracle is set to establish cloud computing infrastructure in Rwanda by June 2024, making the country’s journey to becoming a technology hub a step closer.

Cloud computing, characterised by the delivery of various services over the Internet, including data storage, servers, databases, networking, and software, offers the ability to scale rapidly, adapt to changing demands, and foster innovation.

In a recent episode of “The Long Form” podcast, hosted by The New Times, Paula Ingabire, Rwanda’s Minister of ICT and Innovation, discussed various technology-related topics, unveiling a groundbreaking partnership with Oracle. This initiative aims to propel Rwanda into the realm of cloud computing services, aligning with the country’s ambitious tech development goals.

Oracle’s Entrance into Rwanda’s Cloud Computing Space

The journey to establish a robust cloud computing infrastructure in Rwanda has been set in motion, with Oracle taking the lead. This initiative is not just about technological advancement but also aligns with the country’s commitment to data protection and privacy, which is highly relevant in today’s technology-driven era.

The initial phase of this project is scheduled to commence in December, with an ambitious 18-month timeline to construct the data centre. Paula Ingabire highlighted that Oracle has already identified a strategic location within the Kigali Innovation City to house the data centre. The projected activation date for this groundbreaking facility is June 2024.

Beyond Infrastructure: Leveraging Existing Cloud Resources
While the physical infrastructure is in progress, Rwanda has also made a compelling request for Oracle to harness some of its existing cloud resources. This strategic collaboration seeks to empower not only tech start-ups but also government institutions and corporate entities, propelling Rwanda’s technological aspirations and fostering a competitive ecosystem.

Paula Ingabire outlined the potential impact of this endeavour, stating that it would attract more companies to consider Rwanda as a destination for doing business. This influx of businesses would create a thriving environment where innovation can flourish.

Embracing Cloud Computing in Rwanda’s Tech Revolution

The adoption of cloud computing services is pivotal as Rwanda embarks on a journey to explore and implement technological solutions. Data privacy and protection remain paramount in the digital age, making cloud computing infrastructure an indispensable asset for the nation.

Oracle’s entry into Rwanda’s technology landscape signifies a broader commitment to developing the country’s technological capabilities. By offering cutting-edge cloud computing services, this initiative not only enhances the digital infrastructure but also fuels Rwanda’s aspirations to become a prominent technology hub in the region.

This isn’t the first time Oracle and Rwanda have joined forces. Back in 2015, the two entities inked an agreement aimed at bolstering ICT skills in Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions. This collaboration led to the establishment of learning centres, providing students from various colleges across Rwanda with access to software, curriculum, technology, and certification resources. Through these efforts, Oracle has played an integral role in nurturing ICT talent and contributing to Rwanda’s technological progress.

The establishment of cloud computing infrastructure by Oracle is a testament to Rwanda’s dedication to becoming a regional technology powerhouse. As the project unfolds, it is poised to open new avenues for innovation, economic growth, and technological advancements in the heart of Africa. Oracle’s entry into the Rwandan tech ecosystem signifies a significant step forward and is poised to revolutionise the country’s technology landscape.
