Softline Russian Branch to Split Away from Main Company

A unified cloud for business operations will be created in Russia. Rostelecom was selected as the operator. Currently, the Ministry of Digital Development is discussing the allocation of extra funds to the company for the project with the government.

 
 It is expected that the companies will transfer their data from foreign cloud services to Rostelecom’s infrastructure. They will also receive subsidies if they agree to use this digital solution. According to a source of Kommersant, “a new product will be created; this is not about expanding the "state cloud", which has been developing since 2019 to transfer data from the authorities”.

 
 According to Dmitry Isaev, department director at Softline, the amount of data that businesses need to transfer during the implementation of the initiative of the Ministry of Digital Development reaches tens of petabytes. The experts interviewed by the newspaper found it difficult to estimate the cost of creating a single cloud for businesses.

 
 According to a <a href="http://survey.iksconsulting.ru/page23992645.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">study</a> carried out by the experts of iKS-Consulting, in 2021 the size of the Russian cloud market exceeded 130 billion rubles.
