Six months in, an African startup story

Could've been a far more interesting writeup if it was something more than a list of employees, partners and sponsors.

What do they do? Since Node Africa isn't (yet) a household name, they could have included at least a paragraph explaining their business.

I am confused what nodeafrica does. I assume there are specific challenges to hosting in Africa? Why can't you just host in another country?

Local hosting - latency and data residency are the biggest issues. Some apps just need to be in Africa

I'm curious about data residency in African countries. It's very hard to find any information on what restrictions are there.

I'm from Zambia and we simply can't host locally (cloud services) because it's a) too expensive and b) too unreliable.
