    Colocation in South Africa

    I figure this is a long shot, but am interested to know if anyone has ever colocated gear in South Africa. I am looking specfically around Johannesburg.

    I realize this thread is about a month old, but I'm also wondering what exists in South Africa as far as dedicated servers.

    We are a fully US based host, but I have a client near that area who is looking for a dedicated server.

    What countries or cities would you suggest to look for a server that has fast connectivity to South Africa in general?

    I do not mind going outside South Africa, was even thinking of the UK.

    There are datacenters in Cape Town and Johannesburg - most of these are co-location based. Either of the two will have efficient coverage of SA.

    There are plenty companies who offer Collocation in South Africa, and in just about any major City as well.

    Bandwidth costs more in South Africa, than in tha USA / EU countries, but otherwise you can get exactly the same as you would in USA
