GenBand Africa embraces a dynamic solution by HUAWEI CLOUD

Why HUAWEI CLOUD?

HUAWEI CLOUD collaborated closely with GenBand Africa to decide on an efficient solution which would enable the enterprise to deploy a sufficient strategy to manage the Service Providers cloud infrastructure costs.

Huawei CLOUD was the only solution that could scale optimally and GenBand Africa required a solution which would ease operations and improve efficiency.

HUAWEI CLOUD gave GBA the flexibility to support a solution that didn't exist before. It gave GBA an opportunity to innovate in an area that is very static.

Huawei allowed GBA to optimise using local skillsets. That was essential to them, to be able to train local people in remote areas, create jobs and use them in alignment with the cloud strategy HUAWEI CLOUD provided us with.
