Catalyst Cloud is Aotearoa New Zealand's own cloud

Public sector organisations throughout New Zealand are moving their digital services to the cloud. The government’s Cloud First policy provides strong direction and guidance.

And now there’s a New Zealand owned and operated cloud provider here to support them.

Catalyst Cloud is proud to be a government cloud service provider under our all-of-government Cloud Framework Agreement. So now government agencies can take advantage of the cost-saving and simplification benefits that follow when they choose Aotearoa’s own cloud.

The benefits

Your data on Catalyst Cloud is held in our three onshore data centre regions. Data sovereignty means we’re regulated by New Zealand law, so there’s no risk of unauthorised access by overseas authorities as there is with overseas owned cloud providers
