According to the company, Axentec Cloud is the first enterprise-grade cloud platform in Bangladesh to meet Tier-4 standards for reliability, security, and scalability. It is fully managed locally, with a Tier-4 data center located in Jashore and an additional hosting facility in Bhulta.
As a result, data sovereignty is fully ensured—providing businesses with complete control over their information while remaining fully compliant with national data policies. This marks a significant step forward for Bangladesh’s digital economy and a major milestone in building indigenous technology capability.
Secretary of the ICT Division, Shish Haider Chowdhury, commended the initiative, saying, “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. It will attract global business while elevating domestic enterprises. This platform allows organizations to innovate without compromising on compliance or security. It is a new benchmark for Bangladesh’s tech ecosystem.”
Speaking at the event, Adil Hossain Noble, Managing Director and CEO of Axentec PLC, said, “For years, enterprises in Bangladesh have relied on foreign-hosted cloud platforms, which often raised concerns over data sovereignty, performance, compliance, and cost.
