About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Qlik Expands Cloud Footprint with New AWS Region in the Middle East

New cloud region supports AI-driven business transformation while ensuring data sovereignty and compliance across the UAE and broader Middle East

Qlik®, a global leader in data integration, data quality, analytics, and artificial intelligence, today announced the launch of a new AWS cloud region in the Middle East, strengthening its commitment to organizations across the region that require high-performance AI, data integration, and analytics solutions with full data sovereignty.

With governments and enterprises rapidly scaling AI initiatives, the ability to control, process, and analyze data within national borders is a necessity. The new cloud region enables businesses across critical industries such as finance, healthcare, energy, and the public sector to operate with real-time intelligence, lower latency, and full regulatory confidence.

“AI is a strategic priority for economic diversification in the Middle East,” said Tejas Mehta, SVP & GM, MEA, Qlik. “But AI is only as powerful as the data it’s built on. With our new AWS cloud region, customers can confidently adopt AI-driven analytics while keeping their data within region—ensuring compliance, security, and better performance.”

The Middle East is at an inflection point: governments are setting aggressive AI adoption targets, regulators are tightening data residency requirements, and businesses are demanding faster access to insights to stay competitive.

This cloud region directly addresses these needs by:

  • Ensuring data sovereignty: Businesses can comply with local regulations by keeping sensitive data within the region.
  • Reducing latency, improving performance: Keeping data closer means faster AI model training, quicker insights, and more efficient operations.
  • Enabling AI at scale: Access to Qlik’s advanced analytics, data integration, and AI-powered automation tools ensures organizations can move from data to decision-making faster than ever.

With this launch, Qlik is providing enterprises across the region with the tools to drive innovation, efficiency, and compliance. According to PwC, nearly 70% of Middle East companies plan to migrate most of their operations to the cloud within two years, while Telecom Advisory Services projects public cloud adoption will generate $733 billion in economic value across the Middle East and North Africa by 2033. This rapid shift underscores the need for AI-ready, high-performance infrastructure.

Qlik’s Middle East AWS cloud region will provide:

  • Qlik Analytics, offering a full suite of AI-powered analytics capabilities for smarter decision-making.
  • Qlik Talend Cloud®, ensuring seamless movement of data between enterprise applications, data lakes, and AI models.
  • Qlik AutoML® and AI-powered automation, enabling organizations to rapidly scale predictive and prescriptive analytics.

“This is about making AI real for businesses in the Middle East,” added Mehta. "We’re ensuring organizations in the region have the foundation they need to make AI-driven decisions faster, more securely, and in full alignment with regulatory requirements.”

Qlik’s expansion strengthens the Middle East’s push to become a global AI hub. With local infrastructure, expanded partnerships, and enhanced support, Qlik enables businesses to adopt AI with confidence.
