Millicom invests in new data centers

Millicom announced today the launch of its latest datacenter in Nicaragua, which brings the total number of Millicom datacenters throughout the region to 10.

By the end of 2019, Millicom will have built and deployed six state-of-the-art Tier III data centers, expanding their reach from Colombia, Paraguay, and Bolivia to include Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Honduras.

This, in addition to three existing datacenters in Panama stemming from the company's recent acquisition of Cable Onda. Including the latest datacenter in Nicaragua, Millicom's investment in improving data infrastructure in the region totals over $68 million.

The datacenters increase Millicom's scope of B2B, cloud and infrastructure presence in Central and Latin America, linked together through the company's South American fiber-optic network, GlobeNewswire reports.
