Saudi Arabian cloud provider, Virtual Vision (V2), has expanded its service portfolio with the introduction of Blockchain-as-a-Service (BlaaS) provided by CloudSigma and Red Date Technology.
Tailored for the Saudi business landscape, this initiative will solidify V2’s leadership in public cloud services and equip regional enterprises with innovative blockchain solutions. With a surge of interest from businesses in adopting blockchain technology, the technical complexities and high costs involved in configuring, operating, and managing a blockchain infrastructure can often act as barriers.
V2’s BlaaS streamlines the process, allowing businesses to easily create, manage, and operate blockchain applications in its cloud environment. BlaaS simplifies the adoption of blockchain, making it a usable and affordable tool for businesses.
This collaboration follows the successful enablement of the Blockchain-as-a-Service capability powered by Red Date Technology’s RDCloud Software platform into the V2 Cloud in Saudi Arabia.
As the first local BlaaS provider in Saudi Arabia, V2’s BlaaS offering is uniquely positioned to revolutionize the region’s digital and economic landscape, empowering dramatic cost reductions—up to 89% in development, 66% in training, and 45% in overall operational expenses—making it a cost-effective solution for businesses of all sizes.
Moreover, V2 stands out in the Saudi market with its strong local presence, which ensures compliance with national regulations and offers customer service tailored to the local business environment, which is further enhanced by V2’s connection to major Saudi telecom providers, ensuring high-speed and secure data transmission across the network.
Hazem Sandouka, COO at Virtual Vision, noted, “We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Blockchain as a Service (BlaaS) on our cloud platform, a pioneering initiative specifically tailored for Saudi Arabia. This strategic expansion is not just about technology adoption, it’s about seamlessly integrating blockchain into the heart of digital transformation efforts across the kingdom. By offering this service, we aim to empower organizations in Saudi Arabia to meet their unique needs with sovereign cloud solutions, ensuring that data sovereignty and security are at the forefront. Our commitment is to provide a robust infrastructure that enhances transparency, efficiency, and trust, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s visionary goals for a digital-first future.”
Tim Bailey, VP of Global Business & Operations at Red Date Technology added, “The Middle East is a strategically important region for our global expansion, and we are proud to partner with Virtual Vision and CloudSigma to deliver innovative decentralized solutions to customers in Saudi Arabia. We believe that our partnership with both technology leaders will enable us to continue to expand our global footprint, deliver even greater value to our customers, and help drive innovation in the blockchain industry.”
This collaboration combines the technical strength and commercial expertise of three industry leaders in their respective business segments. Together, Virtual Vision, CloudSigma, and Red Date Technology are set to reshape the digital frontier in Saudi Arabia, offering businesses and institutions the transformative power of blockchain that will enable innovative applications.
