The revenue generated by South African data centres is expected to grow significantly over the next five years.
South Africa’s data centre market is booming, with major players like Teraco, Africa Data Centres , Open Access Data Centres, and Vantage Data Centres heavily invested in the space.
However, it notes that other significant players include Africa Data Centres, Digital Parks Africa, MTN, RSAWEB, Open Access Data Centres, and Xneelo. “The Competition Commission shall consider reviewing and potentially augmenting the Competition Act in relation to the data and cloud market, where empirical evidence indicates that the current law is inadequate to address competition issues in these markets.”Major players in the South African data centre market have invested billions in building their facilities and other aspects, such as renewable power supplies, to reduce their demand on the national grid.
“Africa Data Centres is actively addressing this issue by generating renewable energy, alleviating strain on the local grid.”
