Nigeria Data Center Market – Segmentation

In Nigeria, cloud-based services, IoT, and AI coupled with the adoption of high-power computing servers are the major driving factors for the growth of data centers. Mission-critical and high-performance server systems are likely to dominate the market owing to the increase in 5G deployment and IoT related technology.
Power instability across Nigeria leads to the installation of power backup equipment such as generators among service operators, with diesel generators leading the Nigerian market. In terms of electrical infrastructure, generators are mostly used in N+1 redundant configuration.
Data center facilities open and under construction from 2020 to June 2021 added over 400 rack cabinets. Some prominent vendors offering 42U rack units include Cisco Systems, Eaton, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Rittal, Schneider Electric, and Vertiv Group.
