Vodacom Mozambique is investing $25 million in the construction of its data centre in Matola.

Construction of the Tier 3 vendor neutral facility commenced in 2023. The first of three phases of infrastructure construction is scheduled to be completed in July 2024.

“This infrastructure will incorporate the highest security features available in the industry to protect existing assets, and strict access control measures will be implemented to protect critical data and applications, ensuring maximum security for users,” said Lucas Chachine, managing director of Vodacom Mozambique.

This initiative should enable Vodacom Mozambique to improve the quality of its services and the experience of its customers. The data centre should also allow Vodacom Mozambique to diversify its activities, as well as its sources of income. The neutrality of the infrastructure allows corporate clients to connect to the MNO of their choice.
