Chinese technology giant Huawei is building a third availability zone (AZ, or datacenter cluster) for its cloud region in Brazil. The new AZ is expected to come into operation in the first quarter of 2024.

The announcement was made on November 22 by Mark Chen, president of cloud solutions sales at Huawei, during the company's Cloud Summit Brasil 2023 event.

Huawei has been engaged in Brazil for 25 years and strives to be an important partner for Brazil's digitalization and green, low-carbon development. Huawei Cloud is growing considerably in terms of operators, ISV (independent software providers), e-commerce, logistics and fintechs. Since 2019, Huawei Cloud has launched more than 80 services.

Today, Huawei Cloud has 84 availability zones (AZs) in 30 regions and serves more than three million customers in more than 170 countries and regions. Huawei Cloud is expanding its expertise in digital transformation to Brazil.
