BIOS Middle East is excited to announce a new enhancement to our managed service and cloud offerings. Our customer experience portal has been upgraded to become BIOS VISION. 

Dubai, UAE – December 15th, 2019: BIOS Middle East, a leading managed services and cloud provider in the UAE, announced that it has successfully completed Noor Takaful’s migration from on premise to the cloud, to accelerate its digital transformation journey.

Noor Takaful was established in early 2009 to provide a broad range of Islamic insurance (takaful), general and customised insurance products and services to individuals, families, groups and companies in the UAE market.

The worldwide public cloud services market will reach over $221 bn in 2019 and Gartner says the market will reach just under $400 bn in 2023. That’s some growth.

Underneath those headlines, roughly 50% of organizations are using an approach to infrastructure as a service (IaaS) strategy that is a Multi-Cloud in order to leverage best-in-class capabilities from different cloud providers. Gartner predicts companies using Multi-Cloud will increase to above 75% by 2020.

The total cloud spend of the Middle East is estimated to stand at just below 1bn USD but it’s predicted to grow to 4bn by 2022. In fact this isn’t just happening in the Middle East, globally cloud is being embraced by almost all organizations and is expected to hit 300bn of spending by 2022.

But why are so many companies moving to the cloud so quickly?

The phenomenon that is cloud is shaking traditional IT to its core. The growth in cloud services is nothing short of exponential. Meanwhile hardware sales for traditional datacenter technologies declines fast. When we launched our Cloud services in the UAE in 2013 the conversation used to be; “Is cloud really viable? Is cloud secure? Should I consider it instead of on premise?”, now the conversation has changed to; “Which cloud is best for which application? How much of our IT can we move to the cloud? When can we migrate to the cloud?”

Successfully advancing customers’ cloud journeys, UAE-headquartered BIOS Middle East together with global technology giant Cisco, will be showcasing how customers can efficiently and securely manage workloads across a multi-cloud environment, at the 39^th edition of GITEX Technology Week, taking place from 6^th to 10^th October 2019 at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC).

Dubai, UAE, July 3, 2019: BIOS Middle East, UAE’s leading Managed Cloud Provider, announced that it has been included in the latest Gartner Magic Quadrant report on Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), for the third year in a row.

Are you being held back by outdated infrastructure? Have your servers and hosts reached end of life? If the answer to these questions is yes then you are not alone. How to deal with ageing infrastructure is one of the biggest challenges being faced by companies today.

In an age where the pressure for digital innovation is intense and is on the tip of everyone’s tongue, many companies are stuck with a dilemma – under pressure to embrace digital technologies to improve business efficiency, yet without the resources to move forward. They want to be lean and streamline processes but don’t have the IT platform to support their ambitions.
