Nymbis Cloud Solutions Offers Sought After Colocation Space in Teraco’s CT1 Datacentre
Nymbis Cloud Solutions Offers Sought After Colocation Space in Teraco’s CT1 Datacentre

Living with loadshedding has unfortunately become a way of life for South Africans over the past decade and more, and experts suggest that the energy crisis is likely to last for at least another five years. Against this background, says Barry Kemp, Managing Director at Nymbis Cloud Solutions, many local companies are aware that data centre colocation offers the infrastructure solution they need, without the challenges of managing their own on-premises data centre.

Nymbis Cloud Solutions (Nymbis) is a cloud computing, data protection and data centre hosting solutions provider that enables flexibility and security to both small businesses and large enterprises, and is part of the Vivica Group.

Kemp notes: “Data is obviously a critically important part of any business today, as data drives decision-making, which in turn will significantly affect the success of a business. However, data needs to be managed and secured, within the overall context of costs, operational reliability, and physical and cyber security.

“Many local companies are aware that data centre colocation today offers the solutions they need without the challenges of managing their own on-premises data centre – particularly when ‘normal’ infrastructure parameters are made more difficult by power outages, which obviously has an impact on up-time, cooling and maintenance, for example. Outsourcing data centre responsibilities will, in turn, free up resources to continue with the day-to-day requirements of the business.”

Kemp advised that Nymbis is currently able to offer highly sought-after colocation space in one of South Africa’s premier data centres, namely Teraco’s CT1 facility in Rondebosch, Cape Town.

He continues: “As one of Africa’s most trusted data centre providers, Teraco manages colocation data centres in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban, and is regarded as the continent’s leading carrier-neutral colocation provider. Teraco is also the first provider of highly resilient, vendor-neutral data environments in sub-Saharan Africa. The company is known for providing highly secure, power resilient and sustainable data centre platforms.

“Being vendor-agnostic has allowed Teraco to become the most interconnected data centre in South Africa, able to connect to any of the major cloud providers. In addition, all of Teraco’s datacentres are PCI DSS compliant for physical security, while boasting a 99.999 percent uptime record.”

Against this background, Kemp advises that Nymbis has a limited number of racks available with the CT1 data centre.

“Therefore, if your company could benefit from data centre space within Teraco’s CT1, Nymbis is proud to facilitate the opportunity to connect to a diverse ecosystem within a power resilient, highly secure, and sustainable data centre platform,” he concludes.
