Webinar: Cloud Demand and the African Data Center Market

The announcement by Microsoft that it would make its Azure cloud services available to African customers from data centers located in South Africa and suggestions by Amazon Web Services that it might do the same have been highlights of a coming of age for the African cloud and colocation market.

Overall available data center white space has doubled over the past five years and has been growing by an average of around 15 per cent annually. Data center colocation revenue growth has outpaced top-line B2B ICT revenue growth, in the process emerging as one of the hottest growth segments in the African ICT market.

This webinar will assess this transformation, and provide a window into what the expanding demand for cloud services means for the future of the African data center market
