Strengthening the Backbone of Africa’s Digital Economy with Enhanced Google Cloud Access
Liquid C2, a business of Cassava Technologies, has officially reached gold-level status in Google’s Verified Peering Provider (VPP) programme. This strategic milestone positions Liquid C2 as the most widely peered gold VPP partner on the African continent, underscoring the company’s commitment to providing robust, high-performance digital infrastructure.
For organizations across Africa, this accreditation translates into a superior cloud experience. By optimizing peering infrastructure with Google, Liquid C2 effectively removes the bottlenecks and latency often associated with shared internet paths.
Key benefits for enterprise customers include:
- Faster Performance: Reduced latency and optimized routing for Google Workspace, Google Cloud, and AI workloads.
- Higher Reliability: A geographically distributed, high-availability foundation spanning key hubs in Johannesburg, Lagos, Nairobi, and London.
- Simplified Access: Seamless, uninterrupted service that allows businesses to scale their digital operations with confidence.
This achievement is a central pillar of Liquid’s broader strategy to expand advanced cloud connectivity across the region. It reinforces the company’s growing relationship with Google, following the recent launch of Africa’s first Google Cloud-powered Partner Experience Centre in Johannesburg
“Securing Google’s VPP status represents a significant step forward in Liquid’s efforts to strengthen Africa’s digital infrastructure,” said Vinay Hiralall, Chief Commercial Officer, Liquid C2. “In today’s cloud-first economy, network performance is a key driver of competitiveness.”
By integrating these capabilities into its portfolio, Liquid C2 continues to drive digital inclusion, ensuring that organizations of all sizes can access the technologies necessary to compete in the global digital market.
