How Oman Data Park Supports Vision 2040’s Digital Economy Goals

The Sultanate of Oman has adopted Vision 2040 as its strategic plan for national development through 2040, starting from 2021. It acts as the guiding framework for national planning and aims to convert Oman into a developed, globally competitive nation.

The vision promotes economic diversification, innovation, and sustainable development while focusing on strengthening governance, building human capabilities, and ensuring financial sustainability.

A key part of this vision is the digital economy connecting people, data, and infrastructure to improve government services, strengthen education, and develop smart, livable cities.

As a leading digital services provider, Oman Data Park plays a major role in supporting these national priorities through its advanced cloud, AI, and high-performance computing (HPC) solutions.

Driving E-Government Transformation through Cloud Solutions

A digital government is important for delivering fast, efficient, and transparent services to the public. This 2040 vision focuses on modernizing government infrastructure using cloud technologies.

Oman Data Park’s Cloud Server Services help government agencies shift from legacy systems to modern cloud environments that offer security, scalability, and performance.

Key benefits of cloud adoption for government bodies include:

  • Reduced IT costs and maintenance

  • On-demand scalability for growing services

  • Local data hosting within Oman for compliance

  • Secure access and remote availability for government employees

We will support ministries and public offices in delivering faster services and better citizen experiences by providing secure and flexible cloud infrastructure.

Accelerating Smart City Development with AI and HPC

Smart cities rely on real-time data, intelligent systems, and automation to manage everything from transport to utilities. As Oman moves forward with building smart cities, AI and HPC (High Performance Computing) technologies are at the center of this development.

Oman Data Park’s AI Services and HPC Services platforms offer the processing power and intelligence needed to turn smart city ideas into reality.

Use cases for AI and HPC in smart cities include:

  • Traffic pattern analysis and smart traffic lights

  • Energy grid optimization for better resource use

  • Waste management and smart utilities

  • Air quality monitoring and environmental protection

We help build connected, efficient, and sustainable cities by delivering advanced technologies to municipalities and city developers.

Enabling Digital Education and Research Development

Education is a foundation of Vision 2040. Oman aims to build a knowledge-based society where students and researchers have access to digital tools for learning, innovation, and collaboration.

Oman Data Park supports this by providing cloud infrastructure and AI-powered platforms to educational institutions, research labs, and universities.

Benefits of digital tools in education:

  • Remote learning access and virtual classrooms

  • AI-based student performance tracking

  • HPC-powered data analysis for research
