KINSHASA, Democratic Republic of Congo - Tuesday, 04. February 2025 AETOSWire
(BUSINESS
WIRE)--Raxio Group is proud to announce that its 1.5MW data centre in
the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has successfully achieved the
Tier Certification of Constructed Facility (TCCF) from Uptime Institute.
This prestigious certification reaffirms Raxio’s commitment to
delivering world-class, reliable, and high-performance data centre
infrastructure across Africa.
The Tier III certification process
involved a rigorous four-day, on-site evaluation conducted by Uptime
Institute engineers. Every aspect of the facility’s design and
construction was thoroughly tested, inspected, and verified to ensure
full compliance with Tier III standards. Successfully passing every test
validates that the facility has been built entirely in accordance with
the approved design documents, underscoring Raxio’s technical expertise
and unwavering dedication to quality.
“Achieving the TCCF for our
DRC data centre is a significant milestone for Raxio Group,” said
Robert Saunders, CTO at Raxio Group. “This certification not only
demonstrates the resilience and adaptability of our team in overcoming
many challenges but also reinforces our commitment to building and
operating state-of-the-art data centres in emerging markets.”
This
achievement would not have been possible without the dedication and
expertise of Raxio’s engineering team, whose technical leadership was
instrumental in securing this certification. Additionally, the Project
Management Office team played a crucial role in overseeing construction
efforts, while the local Technical Operations team ensured the facility
was ready for the Uptime Institute’s rigorous testing.
With this
latest certification, Raxio now boasts three Tier III certified
facilities across its growing portfolio, further solidifying its
reputation as a leading provider of cutting-edge data centre solutions
in Africa.
