Cloudera has announced plans to establish a formal presence in Saudi Arabia with the launch of Cloudera Arabia in early 2026. The move follows more than six years of supporting Saudi clients across key sectors including telecoms, financial services, oil and gas, and government.
The new entity will give customers a local base of operations, direct access to Cloudera staff, and greater alignment with Saudi regulations. By operating on the ground, the company will enhance compliance with national requirements around data sovereignty, governance, and traceability, strengthening trust with enterprise and government clients.
Cloudera’s hybrid platform is built to run wherever data resides—from cloud to on-premises—offering organisations flexibility over workloads and spend. Establishing a registered presence underscores Cloudera’s long-term commitment to the Kingdom and its Vision 2030 objectives, which emphasise digital transformation, innovation, and sustainable growth.
