Pan-African network of interconnected, carrier-and cloud-neutral datacentres on the continent Africa Data Centres has completed its new Johannesburg datacentre, based in its Midrand Campus which it claims is one of the largest in Africa.

This state-of-the-art facility, designed with the latest global standards is the ideal location for technology companies and enterprises to secure IT infrastructure in an interconnected environment.

According to Africa Data Centres, the ultra-modern facility will strengthen the company’s position in the South African market.

Commenting on the launch, CEO of Africa Data Centres, Stephane Duproz, said, "We are thrilled to be able to deliver to our existing and future customers the most modern datacentre in Johannesburg. We are happy to be a partner in our customers' growth by delivering capacity in this facility immediately. This investment demonstrates Africa Data Centres confidence in the South African economy and digital development.”

The new datacentre is part of the company's response to the demand for datacentres as businesses across the continent accelerate their digital transformation journeys.

The unveiling of the new facility comes amidst Africa Data Centres' announcement of plans to build ten additional datacentres in new countries and to significantly expand its datacentre footprint by more than twice its current capacity across Africa.
