The implementation of Decree No. 718 of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev dated June 3, 2019, on measures in the field of creation of "Government cloud" (G-cloud) and provision of "cloud" services, continues.

OJSC partially placed its information systems and resources in the Baku Data Center owned by "AznTelecom" LLC under the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport. Azerbaijan Industrial Corporation acquired the Virtual server - IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) and Backup - BaaS (Backup-as-a-Service) "cloud" services provided by "AzInTelecom". ASK is also provided with Microsoft products licensed by AzInTelecom. By placing IT systems in the "Government Cloud", the state institution ensured high availability of critical systems.
