Main One Cable Company, leader in wholesale broadband internet supply in West Africa, has revealed plans to setup a Data Centre in Nigeria. The centre is expected to have about 600 racks — roughly the size of 12 supercomputers — and will be launched in 2014 after completion by the end of next year. The move will venture Nigeria into hosting cloud information locally, and close excuses given about power cuts in Nigeria, preventing the possibility of having a data centre. The Data Center is expected to be a high standard one, securely and reliably usable by small and big organizations. The CEO of Main One Cable Company, Funke Opeke, said that, “the Data Centre will boost infrastructure in the country” and that “those organisations that are hosting their data outside the country should begin to make adequate arrangement to re-route their data to Nigeria and get them securely hosted in our planned new data centre for Nigeria.”
