This project will host a SADC Regional IXP, additional Root Server Instances and adequate capacity cloud services for the region. Tier 3 Certification (99.982 % uptime, No more than 1.6 hours (95 minutes) of downtime per annum and N+1 fault tolerant providing at least 72 hours of power outage protection).
Among others, the main project objectives are to:
• Centralise the various critical and complementary core infrastructure elements that will reduce operational costs
• Optimize the performance of Internet access to meet current and future demands of region
• Ensure that Internet access, tools and services are available and remain resilient against any regional or global crisis
• Reduce the cost of and stimulate hosting of content, create a cloud-based services ecosystem to accelerate eservices, and provide Government and the private sector with simple, flexible, scalable and secured solutions, with disaster recovery capability, in the region.

The project is to set up a regional internet exchange point (RIXP) where traffic between countries within the West Africa region can be exchanged by public peering.
The Project involves interconnection with IXPs within ECOWAS Member States in order to create a regional Hub for digital services.
Among others, the main project objectives are to:
• Ensure that internet traffic which has source and destination within the West Africa region does not have to be routed through transit hubs of which most are located outside the region
• Increase efficiency and improve quality of experience and reduce the cost of transit-to-transit hubs located outside the region.
The project will interconnect Kenya and the neighbouring countries to relay the Kenyan terrestrial fibre network connecting the sub-marine cables arriving to Mombasa to their borders through PoPs and a Smart Hub Data Center.
The project objectives are to:
• Bring down the concept of internet access and telecommunication services
• Contribute to economic development, social well-being, and job creation through the capital role played by ICT in the industrialization process
• Support the growth of internet, digital networks and services to aid in the digital expansion of participating countries.

The project envisages the implementation of six Data Centers in Burundi, Central African Republic, Sao Tome, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon- and the reinforcement of five –Angola, Republic
of Congo, Cameroun, Rwanda, Democratic Republic of Congo.
The project objectives are to:
• Secure cyberspace and help create confidence in an increasingly digital world
• Regionalise the exchange of digital data within the Central Africa sub-region in order to reduce the response time and the data access time.
