How organisations use this coverage
Serve global users of an African platform
Terminate Africa traffic at a local edge node while the system of record and regulated data stay in Rwanda.
Offsite, out-of-continent backups
Hold an immutable third copy of critical data in Africa so a continental incident never costs you your recovery point.
Distributed teams and partners
Give Africa staff, auditors and partners fast, authenticated access through EGREED ID without opening your Rwandan network.

Frequently asked questions — Africa
Does EGreed operate in Africa?
Yes. EGreed maintains edge points of presence across 30 Africa countries, hubbed at Kigali, Nairobi, Lagos, Johannesburg, all managed from the Kigali network operations centre.
Will my Rwandan data be moved to Africa?
No, not unless you request it. Data residency is contractual: Rwandan and regional data stays in EGreed's African data centres by default, and Africa nodes only cache or replicate what you explicitly allow.
What latency should Africa users expect?
2–6 ms in Rwanda, 8–45 ms across the ten server countries
Which regulations apply to Africa workloads?
Rwanda Law No. 058/2021, Country-level data protection acts across the ten server countries, African Union Malabo Convention principles. EGreed provides the data-processing agreement and transfer documentation for each jurisdiction.
Can I run disaster recovery in Africa?
Yes. EGreed builds warm or cold standby environments in Africa with tested recovery-time and recovery-point objectives, rehearsed at least twice a year.
