Is There Really Any Datacenter In Nigeria? by friendehis(m): 12:29pm On Nov 03, 2010 |
Hey guys i was browsing and making some research not quite long and came across a thread. The owner of the thread was asking if there is any datacentre in Nigeria for VPS. What capture my interest was a reply that quoted that there is a company building datacenter in ABUJA. Is there really any such in Nigeria or plan to be such that we need to know? Here is the link to the thread http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?p=7097951 |

I doubt there's currently any data center in Nigeria. Infact it doesn't make sense to have one in a country like Nigeria with the epileptic power situation. Most Nigerian hosts are either reseller or have a datacenter in the US. |

Energy use is a central issue for data centers. Power draw for data centers ranges from a few kW for a rack of servers in a closet to several tens of MW for large facilities. Some facilities have power densities more than 100 times that of a typical office building. For higher power density facilities, electricity costs are a dominant operating expense and account for over 10% of the total cost of ownership (TCO) of a data center.[Energy Efficiency in PDF] By 2012 the cost of power for the data center is expected to exceed the cost of the original capital investment.

Glo has been quoted as having plans to build a Tier three, data center, I do not know if this is just Glo's usual Overtalk.
