I'm intrigued to see when someone launches in Africa.

  Yes, at least an edge location (for CloudFront CDN etc) in Africa would be useful.

    Given that the team who originally built EC2 are based in Cape Town, it seems crazy that there is zero AWS presence in Africa.

      the closest to anything really mainstream I'm aware of currently is CloudFare in Kenya. When I saw this last year it gave me some hope that the bigger players may start to look at Africa seriously in the near future. https://blog.cloudflare.com/mombasa-kenya-cloudflares-43rd-data-center/ https://blog.cloudflare.com/mombasa-kenya-cloudflares-43rd-d...
