In a major milestone for the country’s digital infrastructure, Axentec PLC, an affiliate of Robi Axiata PLC, has officially launched Axentec Cloud, the country’s first Tier-4 cloud platform fully hosted and operated within national borders. The announcement was made today at a press event at Axentec’s corporate headquarters in Dhaka.
The platform is designed to provide businesses with complete control over their information, ensuring full compliance with national data policies. By hosting data locally in a Tier-4 data center in Jashore and another facility in Bhulta, Axentec Cloud guarantees data sovereignty, addressing a key concern for many local enterprises.
ICT Division Secretary Shish Haider Chowdhury praised the initiative, stating, “Local cloud infrastructure is not just critical for securing our data—it’s essential for unlocking long-term economic potential. Axentec Cloud is a timely and strategic move that will attract global business while elevating domestic enterprises. It sets a new benchmark for Bangladesh’s tech ecosystem.”
Adil Hossain Noble, Managing Director and CEO of Axentec PLC, explained the platform's strategic importance. “For years, enterprises in Bangladesh have relied on foreign-hosted cloud platforms, which often raised concerns over data sovereignty, performance, compliance, and cost. Axentec Cloud directly addresses these challenges. It is local, robust, and designed to support the country’s economic growth.”
Axentec Cloud offers industry-leading fault tolerance with 99.99% uptime and is fully aligned with the Bangladesh government's data security frameworks. It provides transparent billing in Bangladeshi Taka, eliminating foreign exchange hassles, and includes 24/7 local enterprise support.
The platform is built with an enterprise-grade security stack, featuring built-in anti-DDoS protection, a web application firewall, and encrypted backups. For developers and modern businesses, it supports GPU workloads, cloud containers, and relational databases to power AI, machine learning, and IoT applications. It also allows for seamless hybrid cloud integration between on-premise and cloud systems.
Purpose-built for critical sectors like banking, healthcare, manufacturing, and e-commerce, Axentec Cloud empowers local enterprises with secure, scalable, and high-performance infrastructure, eliminating the regulatory challenges of using international cloud platforms.
