Nipa Technology Co. brings public cloud infrastructure to Thailand, competes globally with highly reliable, efficient open infrastructure based on OpenStack
The Open Infrastructure Foundation announces the joining of its newest Gold Member, Nipa Technology Co., a leading cloud service provider based in Thailand. Nipa Technology Co., commonly known as Nipa Cloud, is the first company representing Thailand to become a Gold Member of the Foundation.
Nipa Cloud was launched in 2017 when Nipa Technology, which previously focused on digital marketing and ISP services, received a grant from Thailand’s National Innovation Agency (NIA) to develop leading-edge cloud information technology. That year the company launched the first full-service OpenStack public cloud in Thailand, which was designed and developed fully by Thai talent. The company also developed its own efficiency-enhancing platform software known as Nipa Cloud Platform (NCP), which creates a user-friendly interface for navigating the cloud infrastructure.

“Just as tall buildings need a strong foundation, we believe Thailand needs a strong IT infrastructure to fully enter the digital era and support sustained growth,” said Dr. Abhisak Chulya, Chief Executive Officer & Founder of Nipa Technology Co., Ltd. “With solid IT infrastructure, Thai people can increase their competitiveness and compete on the world stage in the enterprise cloud market. Joining an open source community such as OpenStack, we can reduce the cost of doing business enormously and prevent vendor lock-in.”
