Rack Centre expands LGS2 data centre.
West African carrier and cloud-neutral data centre Rack Centre announced it has expanded the facilities of its data centre LGS2 in response to high job demands in the region.
Rack Centre CEO Lars Johannisson explained the company aims to “a competitive edge in the digital landscape to enable businesses to adapt quickly to changing market dynamics.”
He said the construction is a response to the increasing “digital transformation needs of businesses across critical sectors, including finance, oil and gas, manufacturing.”
Johannisson said:
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.
He noted that the expansion is a testament to the company’s focus on sustainability as well as a reflection of its mission to lead the digital infrastructure sector while prioritising environmental responsibility, which can be seen in the energy-efficient design for the facility 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 are dedicated to delivering value-driven digital solutions that not only empower our clients but also contribute to a sustainable future.”
“Our latest data centre expansion aims to reinforce our commitment to providing world-class infrastructure that will support businesses in optimising their services and advancing their digital agendas,” he claimed.
Rack Centre hosted the “Waste to Energy Summit” earlier in the year which brought together key stakeholders to explore energy efficiency and environmental sustainability solutions.
