Nigeria is creating effective and productive digital infrastructures that will power and propel its digital economy to grow the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the Galaxy Backbone (GB) has said.
GB’s Managing Director, Prof Muhammed Bello Abubakar stated this at the ICTEL expo, according to a statement by the IT agency yesterday.
“The digital world was accelerated in 2020 during the pandemic, so today we have a lot of transactions going into billions of dollars beginning and ending across different digital platforms and in that way, a lot of data is being generated. This data has to be securely stored somewhere and backed up as well to ensure and prevent unforeseen circumstances. Organisations must continue to devise innovative ways to store and back up their data to ensure business continuity’’, the statement signed by the agency’s spokesman, Chidi Okpala quoted Abubakar as saying.
He said Galaxy Backbone, the Digital Infrastructure and Shared Services Platform for public and private organisations, is playing an active role in the digital transformation journey of Nigeria.
He said: “We are proud of the investment and the work we have done and continue to do in ensuring that the backbone and network infrastructure that is powering Nigeria’s Digital Economy is secure, available and efficient.
“Our world-class Tier III Data Centre and soon-to-be-launched Tier IV Datacenter for Cloud and Disaster Recovery purposes is available for everyone and sometime later today, we will take a deep dive into its huge potential for Nigerian Small & Medium Size Businesses, Enterprises and the government’’.
