ST DIGITAL supports the technological transformation of the continent from 4 Tier 3 Datacenters across French-speaking Africa and eight commercial entities. A presentation was made by Anthony SAME, Chief Executive Officer of ST DIGITAL, on 1 December last, during a press luncheon held at their premises in Douala.
Cloud computing is a model that enables access to shared computing resources via the internet, without needing to own or manage them locally. The cloud thus offers advantages in terms of flexibility, cost, security and performance. ST DIGITAL therefore offers, through its young pan-African team, a turnkey, flexible and affordable solution that enables companies of any size to benefit from the advantages of the cloud without technical or financial constraints. WWW.CLOUDSTORE.AFRICA is the first cloud platform to offer services such as website hosting, virtual servers, domain names and email accounts from servers located in Cameroun in a Tier 3 Datacenter installed in Douala.
"With ST DIGITAL today, we have innovated by bringing the first cloud service platform to Cameroun. From now on, Cameroonians will be able to order their cloud services online and the cloud will be able to serve them automatically without human intervention. All Cameroonians wishing to have a 100% African email address without sacrificing the comfort and performance of major publisher solutions can visit the WWW.CLOUDSTORE.AFRICA to try it out and take pride in this 100% African solution," boasts Anthony SAME, Chief Executive Officer of ST DIGITAL.
Mindful of the issue of data sovereignty, the services of the CloudStore.africa platform extend to others such as website hosting, virtual servers and .cm and .ga (Gabon) domain names. The guided tour of the Tier 3 data centre by media professionals allows them to gain a tangible understanding, through detailed explanations, of the innovative and dynamic solution that ST DIGITAL offers for the digital transformation of the continent. It provides a turnkey, flexible and affordable solution, enabling them to benefit from the advantages of the cloud without technical or financial constraints.
Despite the barriers associated with the cloud, such as costs related to service subscriptions, bandwidth, security and maintenance, CLOUDSTORE.AFRICA is in sum a project that illustrates the potential and dynamism of the African continent in the digital domain. It represents an opportunity for African companies to equip themselves with high-performance tools tailored to their needs, while contributing to the building of a digital and sustainable Africa.
