October 18 (SeeNews) - US-based multinational computer technology company Oracle is considering the establishment of a regional data centre in Serbia, the Serbian government said on Monday.
At the Expo 2020 event in Dubai, Oracle signed a memorandum of understanding with the Serbian government to study the possibility for the launch of a data centre, the government said in a statement.
The facility may be launched as part of the corporate segment of the Serbian national data centre in Kragujevac launched in December 2020 to back the development of e-government and ensure safe storage of data, the government added.
The data centre in Kragujevac, spreading on an area of 14,000 square metres, was built in a year and a half and houses Serbia's artificial intelligence platform, which is available to the government, universities, technology parks and startups.
