Dubai’s DEWA picks Huawei to build NOC for InfraX subsidiary

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has inaugurated a network operations centre (NOC) for its InfraX subsidiary. Global technology firm Huawei provided the infrastructure for the platform.

InfraX operates an independent fibre optics network that provides local enterprises in energy, transportation, education, healthcare, finance, and others with various digital services.

The company says the NOC will offer enterprises a "more flexible and intelligent technology-verification platform for new applications dependent on cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and virtual reality (VR).“

"The Centre will be a valuable addition to the digital infrastructure of the UAE, by using DEWA's fibre-optic network as a secure, reliable, and super-fast means of increasing efficiency and performance,“ said HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA.
