Data center openings announced in Bolivia and Chile

摘要

As in so many other regions, data center openings are in the news in Latin America, most recently in Bolivia and Chile. Tigo Business, a division of Millicom, has announced plans to open a data center in Bolivia before the end of this month. A $20 million, 1,600 square meter Tigo Business Data Center will open in Santa Cruz on 28 April. Phase One of the development will have a capacity of 128 racks. Regular readers will be aware that Millicom is in the process of selling its mobile communications operations in Tanzania and divesting its stake in the AirtelTigo joint venture in Ghana as part of plans to exit Africa and focus on Latin America. The company already has 12 data centers across a number of Latin American countries including Panama, Guatemala, Honduras, Paraguay and Colombia.
