Business web hosting solution for Angola

by João António Dos Santos Mota

Technological infrastructures are indispensable pillars for increasing technological intensity, the economic growth of a country or company, as well as its productive and entrepreneurial capacity. One of the most important activities in this technological change is to provide access services to Internet sites and servers. If in so-called developed countries there is a vast and very varied offer, in other countries this offer is still scarce and not very versatile. One of the barriers to increasing this supply capacity is the complexity of developing a supply solution for this type of services, because it involves a wide range of requirements, from physical requirements such as network equipment to software requirements such as server virtualization. A study was carried out based on the current situation of the Angolan market in relation to Internet-based services, the promotion of innovative capabilities and the infrastructures supporting these services. It was verified a remarkable need to invest heavily in technological infrastructures as well as the integration of new technologies in the market and in the companies.
