Parklands Data Centre, in Rosebank, Johannesburg, officially opened in January 2019. It is designed to be a modular, energy-efficient installation, which boasts 1,600m2 of space along with 572 server racks and 2.2MW of power. The data centre implements redundancy at all stages, with two separate power supplies, dual diesel generator backups, and more systems to ensure constant power, despite any outages. There is a total of 39288.27 sq. ft. in raised floor space for colocation and the Data Centre can access up to 3.5 MW of power.
The data centre floor and control systems were constructed in a modular system, assembled overseas, and brought back to be implemented in the Parklands facility.
