Strategically positioned in Lekki, LKK2 introduces 2MW of IT capacity across nearly 13,000 square feet. This growth caters to the increasing need in Nigeria for scalable, high-performance infrastructures. Noteworthy is the planned connection with Digital Realty’s LKK1 site, the landing point for the influential 2Africa subsea cable, which enables remarkable connectivity across 33 countries.
The integration guarantees enterprises in West Africa improved application performance with low-latency connectivity and seamless access to significant global digital ecosystems. This carrier-neutral strategy is crafted to enhance connectivity efficiencies, ensuring dependable access to international digital assets.
LKK2 integrates seamlessly with ServiceFabric®, Digital Realty’s advanced global interconnection platform. It ensures efficient, high-throughput connectivity, linking hubs like LOS1, a major internet peering point, and LOS2 on Victoria Island. This collaborative ecosystem ensures resilience, speed, and operational continuity for businesses looking to navigate evolving digital landscapes.
This facility marks a new chapter in West African digital transformation, supporting the aspirations of local and multinational organizations with robust, interconnected infrastructure. “LKK2 is a significant milestone in our efforts to drive digital transformation in Africa,” stated Ike Nnamani at Digital Realty.
This endeavor is a dynamic move towards fostering innovation, solidifying Digital Realty’s role as a key player in Africa’s growing digital sphere. It aligns with the exponential data growth observed continent-wide, offering equipped infrastructures crucial for current and future scalability and connectivity requirements.
Scheduled to commence operations soon, LKK2 aims to cater to the diverse needs of local businesses and international entities seeking secure and resilient digital partnerships in Africa.
