Site JNB-01

Johannesburg, South Africa

Production capacity in Johannesburg, South Africa, selling since 2023. The hardware, the panel and the sign-up policy are identical to every other site we run. What changes here is the law, the routing and the price of moving a terabyte.

What is racked here

Johannesburg is the newest room we have. The hardware is racked, cabled and powered, and it is taking pre-orders while the transit arrangements settle into something we are willing to publish numbers against. Ryzen only at launch, a hundred-gigabit uplink, with EPYC to follow once the site has proven itself.

Johannesburg is the newest room we have.

Round-trip times

South African connectivity has improved substantially with the newer cable systems on both coasts, and Europe now sits around a hundred and fifty-eight milliseconds away. Intra-African routing remains the weak point, since a great deal of it still transits Europe rather than staying on the continent.

Thirty-day medians from our own probes to four reference hubs. Measured, not modelled, and they move when upstream paths do. Your own numbers will differ by a few milliseconds depending on how your traffic reaches the region.

Stock and lead time

In stock means the configurator is telling the truth and a standard build lands in under a minute. Low means the popular sizes are thin and a large order may want a day or two of notice. Ask support what is physically on the floor if the answer matters to your schedule.

Law that applies here

The instance is subject to the law of the country it sits in, and complaints about it are handled under that law rather than under whichever regime the complainant would prefer. We answer what we are legally required to answer and nothing beyond it, we notify you wherever notification is permitted, and what we are able to hand over is short because we hold very little. Read the acceptable use policy before you order if your content is the sort that attracts notices; it is two pages and it is specific.

African consumer services currently served from Frankfurt or Amsterdam, regional compliance requirements, and organisations with southern African user bases who have been asking us for this room for about two years.
