Nigeria’s Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) market is growing rapidly as businesses prioritize data resilience and operational continuity amid accelerating digital transformation. The shift toward cloud-based infrastructures across banking, telecom, and healthcare has heightened the demand for scalable disaster recovery solutions. Regulatory initiatives like e-Naira, the Open Banking framework (2022), and cryptocurrency transaction restrictions by the Central Bank of Nigeria are reshaping the digital payment landscape, increasing the need for robust data protection measures.
Investments in digital infrastructure, such as Microsoft’s African Development Center (ADC) in Lagos (2022), aimed at cloud and edge technology innovation, and Google’s Equiano subsea cable (landed in 2022), which is expected to lower internet costs, boost speeds sixfold, and increase penetration, are further enhancing cloud adoption. However, these advancements have also heightened cybersecurity risks, with ransomware attacks rising more in early 2023. These growing threats are compelling businesses to adopt DRaaS solutions to mitigate cyber risks, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain business continuity, driving market expansion.
According to 6Wresearch, Nigeria DRaaS Market revenue is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.8% during 2025-2031F. The Nigeria DRaaS market is set for significant growth, fueled by increasing cloud adoption, rising cybersecurity threats, and enhanced digital infrastructure. The National Digital Economy Policy and Strategy (2020–2030) aims to drive economic transformation by leveraging digital technologies, fostering innovation, and enabling sustainable growth across industries. Nigeria's Broadband Plan targets data download speeds of 25 Mbps in urban areas and 10 Mbps in rural areas, with 90% population coverage by 2025, significantly improving cloud accessibility.
Additionally, real-time transactions are projected to reach 8.8 billion annually by 2026, growing at an 18.6% CAGR and contributing $6 billion to GDP (1.01% of total GDP). These developments highlight the increasing reliance on secure, scalable, and resilient IT infrastructure, making DRaaS solutions essential to ensure business continuity, data protection, and compliance, especially as industries embrace digital transformation at an accelerated pace.
Real-time replication is expected to witness significant growth in the DRaaS market in Nigeria due to increasing demand for business continuity, data protection, and minimized downtime. As Nigerian businesses face rising cyber threats and need to ensure constant availability of critical data, real-time replication offers instant backup solutions, crucial for financial, healthcare, and telecom sectors.
By deployment type, hybrid cloud is expected to witness the highest growth rate in Nigeria's DRaaS market due to its ability to combine scalability of public cloud with the security of private cloud. As businesses prioritize data protection and cost-efficiency, hybrid solutions offer a balanced approach, meeting regulatory requirements while optimizing disaster recovery and business continuity in a rapidly digitizing economy.
