Background
As the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region emerges as a critical global connectivity hub, a leading provider of colocation data center services was looking to address the growing demand for reliable coverage and capacity.
Backed by national digital transformation initiatives, these hubs are enabling new submarine cable projects that link Asia, Africa, and Europe. By closing regional connectivity gaps, data center solutions support the rising demand for internet traffic, cloud services, and the rapid expansion of AI-driven ecosystems.
Results
- What began as a 1 MW deployment is now an Uptime Institute Tier III certified facility, with a clear expansion path to 6 MW.
- Delivered as a turnkey solution through a local partner, Vertiv provided power and thermal technologies, racks, and containment infrastructure, supporting each phase of growth and minimizing the disruption of live operations.
- The unified power train and thermal chain approach enables additional capacity to come online without compromising interoperability or resilience of the existing infrastructure.
Strategically positioned to support regional digital transformation, the high‑performance hub facilitates new submarine cable landings, bridging connectivity gaps and offering businesses a secure, scalable, move‑in‑ready environment across the Middle East.
