The 3-Tier facility has dual multi-layer power supply to all systems and this will guarantee consistent service availability to all its IT Infrastructure. It boasts of the latest high-tech security, including multi-factor verification, internal and external CCTV coverage.
At the official opening of the Data Centre, the Chief Technical and Information Officer, Ron Reddick, said it has a rack capacity of 110 which can provide the necessary infrastructural space for the many customer oriented projects.
“This Data Centre will store all our computer systems and associated components and this includes redundant or backup power supplies, redundant data communications connections, environmental controls such as air conditioning and fire suppression and various security devices,” he explained.
He revealed in the coming months, Tigo will roll out several enhanced technologies including server and application hosting for Tigo business and many more.
