The project aims to establish secure, scalable and a geographically diverse DR site in Namibia, providing businesses, government agencies and essential service providers with high-availability infrastructure. The DR facility will be equipped with state-of-the-art cybersecurity measures, backup power solutions and high-speed connectivity to ensure minimal downtime and robust data protection.
