Wanclouds is heading to LEAP 2026. Here's what we're bringing, why we built it, and why it matters for IT and cloud teams across Saudi Arabia right now.
The problem nobody has time to fix
Talk to almost any IT or cloud team in the Kingdom today and you'll hear some version of the same story: infrastructure is scaling faster than the tools built to manage it.
Vision 2030 has put digital transformation on a hard timeline. Government agencies are modernizing citizen services. Banks and fintechs are racing to launch new digital products. Hospitals are digitizing records and connecting systems that were never designed to talk to each other. Energy companies are running hybrid environments that span on-prem data centers, private clouds, and multiple public cloud providers at once.
All of that growth is good news for the country's digital economy. It's a lot less convenient for the people who have to keep it running.
More workloads. More vendors. More cloud environments. More attack surface. More regulatory scrutiny. And through all of it, IT teams are being asked to do more with the same headcount, or less, while keeping systems compliant, secure, and available around the clock.
Here's the part that doesn't get talked about enough: most of the dashboards and monitoring tools those teams rely on were built for a much simpler infrastructure footprint than the one they're actually operating today. They were designed for a handful of servers and a single cloud, not a sprawling, multi-cloud, multi-vendor environment where an outage can originate three layers deep and nobody notices until customers do.
When something breaks at 2 a.m., the reality for most teams looks like this: open five different dashboards, cross-reference log timestamps by hand, page through alerts that may or may not be related, write a one-off script to check a hunch, and eventually, after burning the most valuable minutes of an incident, piece together what actually happened. Compliance work follows the same pattern. Preparing for an NCA ECC audit often means weeks of manually pulling evidence, checking configurations against a checklist, and hoping nothing was missed.
That gap between how fast infrastructure has grown and how slow it still is to understand what's happening inside it, that's the problem we built WANDA to close.
Meet WANDA: Wanclouds Agentic AI
WANDA is an agentic AI system built specifically for IT and cloud infrastructure teams. Instead of handing your team another dashboard to stare at, WANDA lets them simply ask a question in plain language and get a direct, correlated answer, the same way you'd ask a senior engineer who already knows your entire environment.
WANDA works across three stages:
Ask: Natural language conversations with your infrastructure. No query languages, no custom scripts, no digging through five tools to piece together a timeline. Your team asks the question the way they'd ask a colleague.
Analyze: AI-powered correlation across every layer of your environment: infrastructure, security, and compliance. WANDA doesn't just surface an alert — it connects the dots between what changed, what failed, and what that means for your security posture and compliance standing, all at once.
Act: Automated insights that point to resolution, not just more data. Instead of a wall of logs, your team gets a clear next step: what caused the issue, what it affects, and what to do about it.
What that looks like in practice
Rather than paging through dashboards, your team can simply ask:
"What caused last night's outage of the SQL DB?"
"Which systems violate our security baselines?"
"Run a compliance assessment against NCA ECC and show gaps."
"Give me an executive summary of the last 24 hours."
And get a direct, correlated answer back, not a dashboard they still have to interpret themselves. For a mid-incident engineer, that's the difference between minutes and hours. For a compliance lead ahead of an audit, that's the difference between weeks of manual evidence-gathering and a report generated on demand.
The numbers behind the pitch
We built WANDA to solve a real operational problem, and the results our early customers are seeing reflect that:
- 70–80% faster incident resolution, root cause analysis that used to take hours of manual correlation now happens in the time it takes to ask a question.
- 90% less compliance audit effort — audit prep shifts from a periodic scramble to something a team can check continuously and generate on demand.
- 30–40% infrastructure cost savings — driven by better visibility into what's actually being used, what's misconfigured, and where spend is being wasted.
- 700%+ Year-1 ROI, with a payback period of roughly 3 months.
For organizations navigating frameworks like NCA ECC while also scaling as fast as Vision 2030 demands, that compliance shift is especially significant. Instead of a fire drill every audit cycle, compliance becomes something your team can verify continuously, with evidence ready whenever it's needed.
Why this matters specifically for Saudi Arabia right now
The Kingdom's digital transformation isn't slowing down, and the regulatory environment around it isn't getting simpler. Frameworks like the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls (ECC) set a high bar, and rightly so, critical national infrastructure, financial systems, and healthcare data all carry real risk if security and compliance slip.
But regulation and rapid growth put IT teams in a tough spot: the faster you scale, the harder it becomes to keep a full, accurate picture of your compliance posture using manual processes. Something built for infrastructure at 2020 scale simply wasn't designed for infrastructure at 2026 scale, let alone what the next few years of Vision 2030 will bring.
WANDA was built with that tension specifically in mind: a way to give IT teams the ability to keep pace with growth without needing to grow headcount at the same rate, and without treating security and compliance as an afterthought bolted on after the fact.
Come see it live at LEAP 2026
We'll be at LEAP 2026, running 31 August – 3 September at RECC Malham, Riyadh, one of the region's largest tech events, bringing together the people building the Kingdom's digital future.
This year, Our WANDA will be live on the GO Telecom booth; you'll find WANDA live and demoing on the GO Telecom booth throughout the event.
If you're attending, we'd love to show you WANDA in person and talk through how it fits into your specific environment, whether that's a single cloud, a hybrid setup, or infrastructure spread across multiple providers. Bring a real scenario from your environment and we'll show you what WANDA would surface.
If Riyadh isn't in the cards this time, we're happy to set up a virtual demo instead, just reach out.
