Digital Realty’s African footprint spans Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, and the scale differences between these markets are stark. South Africa carries by far the most weight, since following its 2022 acquisition of Teraco Data Environments, Digital Realty has held a major position in Africa, with Teraco managing extensive campuses in Johannesburg and Cape Town as Africa’s largest single data centre operator. Lagos, by contrast, is built around subsea cable connectivity rather than sheer scale: Digital Realty’s LKK1 site in Lagos already acts as the landing station for the 2Africa subsea cable, a major system connecting more than 46 landing points in 33 countries spanning Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, giving West Africa a cross-continental connectivity role that Nairobi and Cape Town don’t share in the same way.
Digital Realty currently has confirmed facilities across 3 countries in Africa.

Disclaimer: This page was compiled with a structured research and verification process from publicly available sources. A human decides whether each page is published, but individual facts — addresses, contact details, and whether a company operates in a given location — are not independently fact-checked by us. Where you see a “Verified” badge, it means multiple independent sources agreed, not that we personally confirmed it. Companies open, close, relocate, and change contact details without always updating public records, so treat everything here as a starting point, not a confirmed source. If you're making a business decision, verify directly with the provider. Notice something outdated or incorrect? You're welcome to let us know — this site is updated periodically.
