Providers with data centers here

14 providers with infrastructure in South Africa, the ones with the most data centers here first.

How this list works

Who is on it

Providers running at least one data center in this country, wherever the company itself is based.

Order

Providers are listed by how much presence they have in this country: the more data center locations they run here, the higher they sit. Ties are broken alphabetically.

One sponsor is pinned above that list and labelled.

Search

Matches the provider, its home country, the services it sells, and every data center code and city on its card. Each word has to appear somewhere, in any order, so "frankfurt gpu" means both. Matching is partial and case-insensitive, so "frank" finds Frankfurt.

Transparency and funding

Ads and sponsors: Paid placements sit at the top of the list and are always labeled as sponsored content. Sponsorship never influences the organic ranking itself.
Affiliates: Affiliate links are marked. We may earn a commission if you click them, but commissions never affect the order.
Prices: Shown in USD, converted at daily reference rates where a provider publishes in another currency. A month means 720 hours. Pricing methodology.
