Innovative PDF and eSignature products and services provider Foxit has launched a dedicated cloud server in Australia to deliver faster performance for its customers while keeping sensitive data within the country’s legal framework.
The new infrastructure will serve users across Australia and New Zealand, reducing latency, improving application responsiveness, and ensuring compliance with strict data residency requirements in sectors such as healthcare, finance, and government.
With the server based locally, organisations will gain several immediate benefits. Applications will run more smoothly due to shorter data travel times, downtime risks will be reduced with improved recovery systems, and businesses will be able to keep critical information onshore, a requirement in many regulated industries.
The infrastructure also provides flexibility to scale as customer needs evolve, whether for small businesses or larger enterprises.
Andrew Travis, chief revenue officer (CRO) at Foxit, said: “Bringing our intelligent PDF and document management solutions even closer to Foxit’s Australian customers is a significant milestone, reflective of our ongoing commitment to increasing trust and globalization. By hosting data locally, we are significantly improving performance and reliability and ensuring our customers meet stringent regulatory requirements.”
The Australian rollout comes under Foxit’s global expansion strategy to localise its cloud infrastructure. This approach aims to ensure users worldwide can access secure, high-performance digital document solutions without relying on distant servers.
Customers in Australia can now take full advantage of Foxit’s suite of tools, including secure document collaboration, advanced editing, and e-signature features, while enjoying the assurance of local cloud hosting.
Foxit, a provider of PDF and eSignature products, serves more than 640,000 customers in over 200 countries, ranging from small businesses to multinational enterprises. The company maintains offices across the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia.
