Nimbus is the general name for clouds that contain precipitation.
Today, when the word nimbus is mentioned in the Israeli real estate community, everyone knows it’s the name of the project to provide cloud data and storage services to all of Israeli ministries, government authorities and the IDF.
Most of the hyper scale cloud service companies participated in the Nimbus tender and Israel awarded it to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud.
The importance and benefits of establishing a cloud infrastructure within the Israeli physical territory are:
Improving Efficiency - optimal performance and minimal response time.
Data - availability of data processing power.
Sovereignty – regulation of services and information in accordance with the Laws of the State of Israel.
Continuity of Functionality - continuity and survival of services in the State of Israel, even in the event of disconnection from the global internet network.
Local Investment - significant financial investment by the clouds provider, in the establishment of the sites in Israel.
Employment - employment of thousands of workers in the operation (at least during the establishment stages) and for the purpose of providing services that support the area's activities.
The two losing companies in the tender - Microsoft and Oracle - waged a public relations campaign in efforts to change the decision.
