Gulf Data Hub
Independent data center operator in the UAE and Saudi Arabia
Overview
Gulf Data Hub operates colocation data centers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Jeddah and Dammam, serving enterprises, telecom operators and cloud providers active in the Gulf. In January 2025, funds affiliated with KKR announced an investment in the company.
Its position as an independent operator, not tied to a telecom carrier or cloud provider, allows it to serve clients seeking carrier-neutral interconnection.
The company supports the region’s growing hosting demand, driven both by the migration of information systems to the cloud and by compute needs linked to artificial intelligence.
