Description

Sub-Saharan Africa Datacenter Trends, Investment Strategies, and Deployments


This IDC Market Perspective takes a detailed look at the latest developments in the datacenter market in Sub-Saharan Africa. It highlights some new construction projects and the expansion of existing datacenter facilities in the region. Importantly, the report outlines some of the key partnerships and strategies being implemented by existing datacenter operators in the market."The datacenter market in Sub-Saharan Africa is currently experiencing significant growth due to increased investment in infrastructure development by both local and foreign datacenter operators. The COVID-19 pandemic was the initial catalyst of this rapid growth, as organizations adopted a remote working environment due to lockdowns at the time. Subsequently, organizations have adopted hybrid working environments, resulting in the need for a hybrid cloud or multicloud approach. This has driven demand for datacenter services among both enterprises and cloud providers."— Derrick Chikanga, research manager, IT services, IDC Middle East and Africa

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
