Locality
The first critical decision for an organization is the decision to move to the cloud. Right next to it is an equally critical decision: to move to a local cloud infrastructure. This is strategic, as it significantly affects the performance, compliance and continuity of the business.
Microbase, as a provider of cloud solutions and services, offers Cloud Infrastructures – in Athens and Thessaloniki – for reasons of local adaptation and redundancy.
The importance of choosing a local cloud infrastructure is manifold and of paramount importance.
To begin with, local cloud infrastructure provides extremely low latency, leading to improved performance. When applications are “run” closer to users, this results in faster load times, more responsive applications, improved real-time communication and smoother operation for video, VoIP, IoT and AI workloads.
In addition, local control enhances security. Local cloud providers typically offer dedicated support teams, clearer enforcement of Service Level Agreements (SLAs), secure and geographically controlled data centers, and easier infrastructure oversight. This gives organizations a clear understanding of where their data is stored and who is managing it.
Equally important, local infrastructure offers stronger data protection and compliance with regulations such as GDPR and other local laws. By keeping data within national borders, organizations meet data retention requirements, comply with privacy laws, and follow security mandates in the public sector and finance. This not only simplifies audits but also minimizes legal risks.
Additionally, local providers often provide closer and more personalized support. They understand the local language and business context, which leads to faster response times, on-site assistance if necessary, and predictable communication channels.
Local infrastructure also promotes business continuity. It reduces dependence on global networks that could be disrupted by geopolitical issues, international policy changes, etc. As a result, the cloud remains stable and resilient, even in uncertain situations.
Finally, local cloud infrastructure contributes positively to the technology ecosystem on which it is based. It supports local jobs, promotes digital transformation, and strengthens national competitiveness, creating a strong technology environment for both businesses and the state.
Local cloud infrastructure guarantees speed, security, compliance, resilience, and trust — all key components of modern digital transformation.
