West Africa’s leading carrier and cloud-neutral data centre, Rack Centre, has reaffirmed its commitment to contributing to Nigeria’s digital economy by expanding its state-of-the-art data centre facilities.
According to the company, this development aims to enable sustainable digitisation and foster job creation.
Speaking on the expansion and the company’s strategic focus of driving efficiency and cost optimisation, Lars Johannisson, CEO of Rack Centre, explained that the company aims to provide a competitive edge in the digital landscape to enable businesses to adapt quickly to changing market dynamics.
“The construction of the LGS2 data centre, which is in response to the increasing digital transformation needs of businesses across critical sectors, including finance, oil and gas, manufacturing, and the public sector, is expected to create new jobs, thereby establishing the company’s role as a key player in fostering skilled employment opportunities for IT professionals in the region.” Johannisson said.
He noted that the expansion is a testament to the company’s focus on sustainability and a reflection of its mission to lead the digital infrastructure sector while prioritising environmental responsibility. This can be seen in the facility’s energy-efficient design and its PUE(Power Usage Efficiency) of 1.35, one of the lowest in the region.
“As part of Rack Centre’s strategic focus on sustainable digitalisation and cost optimisation, we deliver value-driven digital solutions that empower our clients and contribute to a sustainable future. Our latest data centre expansion aims to reinforce our commitment to providing world-class infrastructure to support businesses in optimising their services and advancing their digital agendas,” he said.
