Nigeria has reached a new milestone in digital innovation with the launch of CloudVantage, the country’s first indigenous cloud automation platform. The new platform is designed to simplify and accelerate cloud adoption for developers, tech engineers, businesses, and government institutions across Africa.

The launch marks a pivotal moment for the region’s cloud ecosystem, providing a resilient, cost-effective, and secure local alternative to international cloud service providers.

Solving Cloud Challenges for African Businesses

According to CloudVantage Chief Executive Officer, Muhideen Ashiru, the company was built to address long-standing challenges faced by organizations in managing cloud infrastructure, including time-consuming onboarding processes, manual server setups, cost management issues, and security concerns.

“For too long, our businesses, including governments, have sought affordable, local cloud-automation solutions, simple and reliable locally-developed options with a ‘pay-as-you-go’ model,” Ashiru said.

He added that CloudVantage aims to make scalable, secure, and smart cloud technology accessible locally, helping organizations gain a digital advantage without relying heavily on foreign providers.

Built on Intelligent Automation

The CloudVantage platform is powered by intelligent automation, offering end-to-end solutions that directly tackle modern cloud adoption challenges.

Its core features include:

• Automated cost optimization – ensuring efficient cloud resource allocation and eliminating hidden fees.
• Automated security – providing proactive protection and compliance for sensitive data.
• Automated provisioning – enabling faster deployment of cloud environments for developers and enterprises.

Ashiru emphasized that the company is not just offering cloud services, but rather “delivering automated digital advantage” through a platform designed to empower innovation, efficiency, and data sovereignty within Nigeria and beyond.

Empowering Nigeria’s Digital Future

With CloudVantage’s launch, Nigeria takes a major step toward localizing cloud infrastructure and reducing dependence on global providers. The platform’s pay-as-you-go model and affordability make it especially attractive to startups, SMEs, and government institutions looking for scalable and compliant cloud solutions.

By blending automation with accessibility, CloudVantage could play a critical role in advancing Nigeria’s digital transformation agenda, boosting cloud adoption, and fostering innovation across industries.
