ManageEngine announced that its cloud-based IT management applications are being hosted in two Australian data centers recently launched by its parent company, Zoho.
Now, organizations in Australia and New Zealand have access to ManageEngine solutions provided entirely from ISO 27001-certified, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, PCI-DSS compliant data centers in Melbourne and Sydney. The move helps IT teams in the region to migrate operations seamlessly to the cloud while adhering to Australian data privacy laws and security standards.
As cloud adoption continues to grow in Australia and New Zealand, so do related concerns about data security and privacy. In addition to complying with a growing number of data privacy regulations, organizations in the region are increasingly concerned about data sovereignty. Specifically, organizations are cautious about cloud service providers that store their personally identifiable information and other business data outside of the country because that data is then governed by another country’s laws.
"Data sovereignty is non-negotiable for many companies and government organizations considering a move to the cloud," said Rajesh Ganesan, VP at ManageEngine. "We are committed to meeting the demands of regional customers facing stricter laws concerning data processing and storage. The investments we've made to host ManageEngine services in our local data centers is a big part of that commitment and reflects our long-term plan for the region."
ManageEngine is hosting ITSM, ITOM and endpoint management services from the Melbourne and Sydney data centers, which are collocated in Equinix facilities. Subscription plans are billed in Australian dollars. The Australian data centers are also hosting regional customers' data, including customer data previously hosted in other regions' data centers. Moving forward, the data centers will comply with the requirements of the Australian Signals Directorate.
ManageEngine currently has more than 4,000 Australian customers. With its IT management solutions delivered from the two new Australian data centers, ManageEngine solutions are now hosted in 10 company-owned data centers worldwide, including the United States, Ireland, the Netherlands, India and China. Customers can now choose their preferred data center when they sign up for ManageEngine's cloud services. All 10 of the data centers are managed and monitored by ManageEngine’s solutions.

I've spent a lot of time in the channel, and one thing I keep coming back to is this: a partner program is only as good as what it looks like in the field. Many programs look great on paper, but when a partner is in front of a customer navigating a complex hybrid environment or trying to make the case for AI-powered observability, the gap between what a vendor promises and what it actually delivers becomes very clear, very fast ...
Enterprises today operate in a real-time environment where uninterrupted access to trusted data has become a baseline expectation for users, applications and automated systems. Traditional DataOps models, built on manual effort and human triage, cannot keep pace with this always active demand. AI agents are emerging as the operational backbone, ensuring consistent data availability, reinforcing trustworthiness and enabling a level of scale that manual processes cannot achieve ...
For decades, trust in the digital workplace rested on familiar signals. We trusted faces on video calls, voices on the phone, and emails that appeared to come from people we knew. These cues felt human and intuitive. They anchored how decisions were made, approvals were granted, and access was authorized. AI-powered deepfakes have quietly broken that model ...
Cloud migration was supposed to be a one-way door. For most enterprises, it turns out it isn't. Cloud data repatriation is a real and growing trend. A new survey ... finds that 89% of organizations plan to expand their on-premises infrastructure footprint over the next two years — and 75% have already moved at least some workloads back from public cloud in the past 24 months. The findings point to a broad rethinking of where data belongs ...
Over the past few years, large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the software industry. Given their ability to excel at multi-step reasoning, LLMs have helped enterprises streamline workflows and adapt to the unknown. However, employing such models comes with sky-high costs, latency issues, and limited flexibility. In the realm of IT operations, it is generally wiser to employ smaller, domain-specific models instead ...
For years, DevOps teams operated under a simple assumption: collect enough telemetry, and you can find and fix any problem. That assumption is breaking down. Modern enterprises now operate across microservices, hybrid cloud environments, APIs, Kubernetes, and highly automated delivery pipelines. Releases happen continuously, dependencies shift constantly, and failures spread faster than teams can diagnose them ...
New Relic surveyed IT and engineering leaders from the media and entertainment (M&E) sector to understand what's working — and where challenges persist with their observability practices. The findings reveal how M&E organizations are navigating rising platform complexity, audience expectations, and AI-driven change. Below are five takeaways that stand out ...
Let me start with something I've seen play out more times than I can count. A team hits a wall with the cloud. Costs creep up, then spike. Performance starts to feel inconsistent. Someone in finance asks a simple question like "why did this double?" and nobody has a clean answer ... Maybe this isn't the right place for everything. That realization feels like a breakthrough, like you've identified the problem. In reality, you've just identified the starting line ...

In cloud-native systems, scaling is often as simple as moving a slider. For on-premise databases, the stakes are different. Over-provisioning hardware is expensive. Under-provisioning leads to performance bottlenecks that are difficult to fix once the equipment is in the rack ...
