Lagos Data Centre
Redundant uplinks with automatic failover and diverse international transit.
Dual power feeds with industrial UPS and on-site diesel generators. Extended fuel contracts for uninterrupted operation.
Direct peering at IXPN (Internet Exchange Point of Nigeria), connecting to Nigerian and West African networks at local speed.
Multi-carrier facility with diverse submarine cable access. Full path diversity to international networks.
The West African Hub
Lagos is West Africa's primary internet hub, home to IXPN and landing point for multiple submarine cables. With 200+ million people in Nigeria alone and 400+ million across West Africa, Lagos is the most strategically important hosting location in the region, yet international-grade hosting infrastructure has been chronically scarce.
Measured minimum round-trip to our Johannesburg data centre. The full Lagos-origin latency table below is measured from our Lagos facility.
MainOne (to Lisbon), ACE (to France), SAT-3 (along the African coast to South Africa), and Equiano (Google's cable from Lagos to Lisbon). Lagos has more submarine cable capacity than any other West African city.
Measured Latency
RTT measured via ICMP ping from the Lisbon DC. Spanish cities show minimum RTT from multi-endpoint testing (April 2026); others show average RTT. Actual latency varies by routing and time of day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I host a VPS in Nigeria?
Yes. RANDHOST's Lagos data centre provides cloud VPS hosting with 10Gbps networking, NVMe storage, and full root access, all within Nigeria. This means in-country routing for Nigerian users, NDPR-compliant data sovereignty, and IXPN peering that keeps local traffic local.
What latency can I expect within West Africa?
Measured from our Lagos facility: 7ms to Accra, 10ms to Abuja, 17ms to Abidjan, 21ms to Lomé and 72ms to our Johannesburg data centre. The full Lagos-origin table is published on this page. IXPN peering keeps Nigerian traffic in-country, avoiding the long round trips to European servers that most Nigerian applications suffer today.
Is there reliable power backup in Lagos?
Absolutely. Our Lagos facility is designed for Nigeria's power grid realities. It features dual utility power feeds, industrial UPS systems, and on-site diesel generators with extended fuel contracts. We maintain 99.99% power availability regardless of grid conditions, this is infrastructure built for Lagos, not repurposed from elsewhere.
What is IXPN peering?
IXPN (Internet Exchange Point of Nigeria) is Nigeria's primary internet exchange, enabling direct peering between Nigerian and West African networks. By peering at IXPN, our servers in Lagos avoid routing Nigerian traffic through Europe or the US, dramatically reducing latency and improving performance for local users.
Is the Lagos data centre live?
Yes. The Lagos data centre is live and taking orders now: pick a plan on this page and your cloud VPS deploys in under 60 seconds. Additional products for the region will be announced as they become available.
Is my data protected under Nigerian law?
Yes. Data stored in our Lagos data centre is subject to Nigeria's Data Protection Regulation (NDPR), which establishes data protection rights for individuals. We support your NDPR compliance requirements, including data sovereignty within Nigeria and appropriate technical and organisational measures.
