Today, OVIO held the
official opening ceremony of the largest and most powerful Data Processing Center in Armenia.
The Data Processing
Center, which has been put into commercial operation, will provide the bulk of
data management and cloud services in Armenia with its capabilities. Cloud Services will play a key role in the company's offering, providing scalable,
secure and efficient solutions.
The OVIO data center was
built in compliance with high TIER III equipment and infrastructure reliability
standards, which means providing double data replication, power from two
electrical substations, a backup cooling system, uninterrupted operation of the
data center during maintenance and upgrades, and other advantages. This
reliable infrastructure will ensure uninterrupted access to data and 24/7
customer service.
“It is a great honor for
me to announce the official launch of the largest data center in Armenia. The
launch of this state-of-the-art facility is an important step towards our
country's technological development and underscores our commitment to
strengthening Armenia's position in the global IT environment. I express my
gratitude to our team, our partners and the government of Armenia for their
support. I can say that our Data Center will act as a catalyst for economic
growth, attracting foreign companies, as well as concentrating local
technological potential. Thanks to the data processing center, hundreds of jobs
have been created and will be created, employing qualified specialists who are
constantly undergoing training,” said OVIO CEO Hayk Faramazyan.
More than 200 racks were
built as part of this ambitious project. This will be the largest data center
in Armenia, which will provide secure processing and storage of data for large
and small businesses, as well as government institutions, making it possible to
save huge amounts of money required for the purchase of expensive equipment and
its maintenance. The facility is located in the city of Abovyan, just 16
kilometers from the capital Yerevan, its strategic location provides
convenience and quick access to both local and international clients, providing
a wide range of solutions.
Considering the
strategic importance for the country, the investment program of the Data
Processing Center built by the company was approved by the Government of the
Republic of Armenia and included in the “Infrastructure for Investment” support
