West African submarine cable cuts have caused multi-country outages with hours-to-days of impact. We use these incidents to pressure-test our customers' resilience designs, and most fail.
West Africa has seen multiple high-profile submarine cable incidents in recent years, events that knocked out international connectivity across Nigeria, Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire, and beyond for hours and in some cases days. These events are not 'black swans'; they are foreseeable disruptions in a system with concentrated international capacity routes.
If you can't say with confidence which physical cables your traffic rides today, you don't have a redundancy story, you have a redundancy diagram. We audit this for clients before we propose any rearchitecture.

Tier-2 commercial banks, microfinance institutions, and fintechs are quietly walking away from MPLS toward SD-WAN. The gains are real, but the way you migrate decides whether you keep them.
