Teraco: JB1+JB3 ISANDO: hosts Oxide Cloud’s Primary services and acts as the core connectivity hub and breakout to other network providers. Harnessing Teraco’s extensive interconnected services from Africa Cloud Exchange (ACX) and NAPAfrica, OCS customers have the digital world at their doorstep. ACX facilitates hyperscaler cloud on-ramps to AWS, Azure and various other services.  All OCS services are available in the Teraco Isando data center. Currently, only Co-location hosting and network break-out services are available in CT2 (Cape Town), with plans to expand the offering as demand grows.

Digital Parks Africa (DPA): Samrand hosts Oxide Cloud’s alternate primary location for core Oxide Cloud Services. DPA offers an innovative modular approach to data centre design that harmonises well with the core design principles of the OCS platform. Optimised power delivery and back systems enable OCS to scale our power requirements from 3kw to 15kw infrastructure hosting options. This factor allows OCS to deliver, cost-effectively, on next-generation technology expansion, such as high-end NVIDIA GPU offerings that require higher energy throughputs. Not to be outdone, DPA also extends OCS customers’ carrier-neutral connectivity options by providing peering access to INX-ZA | JINX and various fibre & interconnectivity carrier services.
