Macquarie Cloud Services is Australia's most recommended cloud provider, trusted by business, higher education, and government to deliver secure, high-performance infrastructure with local expertise and award-winning support.
Part of ASX-listed Macquarie Technology Group, we operate sovereign, certified data centres across Australia, purpose-built for organisations where security, compliance, and performance are non-negotiable.
Our Approach to Higher Education
We understand the unique pressures facing universities and research institutions: constrained budgets, growing data demands, complex compliance requirements, and the need to modernise aging infrastructure without disrupting critical operations.
Our mission is straightforward: make cloud work better for organisations that can't afford to get it wrong. That means secure, cost-effective infrastructure backed by real people who understand university environments and priorities.
CAUDIT Cloud
Developed in collaboration with CAUDIT and powered by Dell Technologies, CAUDIT Cloud is built specifically for the needs of the sector. The platform supports everything from core academic and administrative systems to AI workloads and data-intensive research computing.

- Replatform critical systems with confidence and minimal disruption.

- Meet compliance frameworks including IRAP, ISO 27001, and ASD Essential Eight.
