Qatari multinational telecommunications company, Ooredoo has signed an agreement with Google Cloud to leverage Apigee’s centralized API gateway.

The Google Cloud Apigee platform will enable operating companies in all Ooredoo markets to easily integrate digital partners and global applications with its internal systems, thus offering a streamlined service to customers.

Further, business customers will benefit from accessing the API gateway capabilities for their own operations, as per the statement.
