"“Ensuring national data sovereignty and cybersecurity for the digital government and key digital economic infrastructures; forming a centralized, secure, and reliable digital and data infrastructure to serve national digital transformation; gradually replacing foreign cloud services in state agencies, reducing the risk of data leaks and breaches of state secrets.”"
"“Developing a national cloud computing platform is number 13 on the list.”"
"“Yet major hyperscalers Microsoft, Google, and Tencent Cloud are yet to build facilities in Vietnam. AWS will bring one of its lightweight Local Zones to Hanoi, Alibaba Cloud intends to build a datacenter, and Huawei Cloud has expressed interest in doing likewise.”"
"“Yet any Vietnamese government workloads currently operating in a major hyperscaler violate the nation's own laws that require local storage of personal information!”"
Vietnam plans to develop a national cloud computing platform by 2035 as part of a broader program of 20 strategic technologies. The goals include ensuring national data sovereignty and cybersecurity for digital government and key digital economic infrastructures. The plan aims to build centralized, secure, and reliable digital and data infrastructure to support national digital transformation. It also targets gradual replacement of foreign cloud services used by state agencies to reduce risks of data leaks and breaches of state secrets. The government seeks greater cooperation from major hyperscalers, while noting that current workloads hosted by foreign providers may conflict with laws requiring local storage of personal information. Other planned technologies include large-scale Vietnamese language models, virtual assistants, and AI for applications such as cameras and credit risk management.
