Teraco

Teraco is a South African data centre operator that describes itself as vendor-neutral. Its site names Digital Realty as its parent company.

It runs data centres in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban, and sells colocation and interconnection to enterprises, carriers, cloud providers and internet service providers. The Africa Cloud Exchange lets customers link directly to cloud providers from within its facilities.

Teraco sells space, power and connectivity rather than virtual machines, so it suits buyers who bring their own equipment. Buyers should contact the company for quotes and for the services available at each site.

Because the facilities are vendor-neutral, customers can connect to several carriers and cloud providers from one site. The three cities named above are the locations listed on its data centre locations page, and each can be reached through the Africa Cloud Exchange.
