Econet Wireless Zimbabwe will start bringing business customers into its new computer center before June ends. The 5-megawatt facility sits in Harare and aims to strengthen the country's digital systems. Africa Data Centres helped design and build the project. The company operates the largest network of computer centers across Africa. Econet owns the entire Data Centre operation.
CEO Douglas Mboweni says companies can store their computer equipment at the facility with constant power supply. Clients access cloud storage, security protection and artificial intelligence services from major technology partners like Google and Microsoft. The center never loses electricity because of multiple backup power systems. Companies avoid buying expensive server equipment for their offices. Technical staff can maintain their systems without restrictions at the facility.
Econet plans to double the center's power capacity to 10 megawatts as artificial intelligence demands grow. The secure building houses powerful computing equipment that processes massive amounts of information. Users can reach their data from remote locations through network connections. Africa Data Centres already manages similar facilities in Johannesburg, Lagos and Nairobi. Load shedding problems disappear for businesses using the professional-grade power infrastructure.
