National Telecoms Operator, Globacom has set up a world-class
Internet Data Centre in Lagos to provide co-location services, disaster
recovery and dedicated hosting facilities to corporate clients in
Nigeria and West Africa.
The company has also announced plans to expand its existing data management platform by building another data centre that will be Nigeria’s Largest Iconic Data Center, providing Tier 3 and Tier 4 enterprise data services from Abuja, Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory.
The new data centre will provide network-based services, applications, equipment and Cloud Services in a highly safe and secure environment with back-ups.
According to Globacom’s Corporate Chief Information Officer (Information Systems), Mr. Cesar Camara, most of the websites and servers of various Nigerian organisations are hosted elsewhere across the world in countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States of America due to unreliable power supply, insecurity and other challenges.
“This is why Globacom has stepped in to become one of the top players in the Managed Services Industry across Nigeria & West Africa. We are leveraging on our existing telecoms infrastructure, Glo1 Submarine cable, reliable power supply network, experienced manpower and experience in building State-of-the-art technologies for our existing voice and data telephony services,” he told journalists while conducting them round the Glo Data Centre in Lagos. .
Data Centres, especially the Tier 3 and Tier 4 categories, which provide the highest level of failure proof, redundant, secure and safe environment, fault tolerance, compartmentalization and continuous cooling, are highly valued by most organizations because all mission-critical/real-time applications today depend on server uptime
