nosi.cvNOSi – Núcleo Operacional para a Sociedade de Informação, E.P.E. is a Cape Verdean public technology enterprise with a much broader role than a conventional commercial hosting provider. Its roots go back to
1998, when the State Financial Administration Reform Unit, UC-RAFE, was created within the Ministry of Finance. The organization evolved into NOSi in
2003 under Resolution No. 15/2003 and became the public enterprise NOSI E.P.E. in
2014. This long institutional history is important because its hosting and cloud services are connected to infrastructure that also supports major digital-government systems in Cabo Verde.
The current Chairman of the Board is
Carlos Tavares Pina. NOSi is headquartered in Praia and operates as a government-owned organization rather than an independent privately owned hosting company. Its workforce falls within the 201-500 employee range, which also puts it on a very different scale from the small hosting businesses normally serving the Cape Verdean market.
The main hosting portfolio is grouped around
Webhosting, Webhosting Reseller, Virtual Private Servers, Housing/Colocation and Backup. Alongside these services, NOSi also works with
Cloud, Multi-Cloud environments, Kubernetes, secure Internet connectivity, Anti-DDoS protection, dedicated public IP addresses, managed firewalls, VPN, MPLS connectivity, network monitoring, cybersecurity, custom software development, digital certificates, Business Intelligence and GIS. This makes the company especially relevant to organizations that need more than a simple website account.
Webhosting is the entry point for conventional hosting customers. The service uses Linux infrastructure with unlimited monthly traffic, webmail, MySQL databases, email accounts and
cPanel. The Basic package includes 3 GB of storage, one subdomain, ten email accounts and one MySQL database. Capacity increases progressively through the larger packages, reaching 20 GB of storage, eight subdomains, 100 email accounts and four databases on the higher standard plan.
These allocations are relatively modest by international shared-hosting standards, particularly for disk capacity, but they remain practical for company websites, institutional portals, small CMS installations and business email. Unlimited traffic reduces concern about ordinary monthly bandwidth consumption, while cPanel provides a familiar environment for users migrating from other Linux hosting platforms.
Webhosting Reseller is considerably more flexible for agencies and IT providers managing multiple customers. Storage allocations are 50 GB, 80 GB or 100 GB depending on the package, while websites, databases and email accounts are unlimited. Free SSL certificates are also included. The reseller environment allows individual hosting accounts and packages to be created and administered separately, making it suitable for local web developers that want to provide hosting under their own customer relationship without maintaining physical server infrastructure.
The
Virtual Private Server service provides dedicated virtual resources for applications that have outgrown shared hosting. Standard VPS configurations begin with 2 vCores, 2 GB RAM and 50 GB of storage and scale to 8 vCores, 16 GB RAM and 200 GB of storage. NOSi can also price infrastructure according to individual vCPU, RAM and storage requirements, which is useful for projects that do not fit the predefined VPS sizes.
VPS is one of the more interesting parts of the portfolio because it sits directly alongside NOSi's broader cloud and managed-infrastructure capabilities. An organization can use a relatively simple VPS for a web application and later add network security, dedicated IP resources, VPN connectivity, firewalls, monitoring or more complex cloud architecture without moving to an unrelated supplier.
Housing is the colocation service for customers that want to place their own physical equipment inside NOSi's State Data Center. Main Room and Safe Room options are available, ranging from individual rack units to half racks and complete racks. This gives larger customers an alternative to virtual infrastructure when they need to control their own servers, appliances or network hardware.
The
Backup service provides separate storage for copies of important customer data and supports subsequent recovery when required. Backup can therefore be used alongside hosting, VPS and other infrastructure rather than relying solely on the production environment.
NOSi's cloud and network capabilities substantially extend the usefulness of these hosting services. Kubernetes environments are available for containerized applications, while cloud and Multi-Cloud consulting covers deployment, administration and infrastructure integration. Network services include Anti-DDoS protection, dedicated public IP addresses, site-to-site and remote-access VPNs, MPLS connectivity and managed firewalls. Firewall technologies in use include Palo Alto, Fortinet/FortiGate, Huawei USG and Cisco ASA, while network monitoring can include SolarWinds NPM and Observium.
Development and platform services are another important part of the organization. The
IGRP platform provides low-code/no-code application development capabilities, while additional systems cover secure data exchange through PDEX, authentication through Autentika, custom applications, corporate portals, mobile applications, Business Intelligence and GIS. NOSi also operates certification services for digital certificates.
The website supports
Portuguese, English and French, making the organization accessible to both local and international customers. Hosting and infrastructure pricing is primarily shown in
Cape Verdean escudos, CVE, while some infrastructure documentation also provides equivalent prices in USD.
The overall service model is therefore much broader than ordinary shared hosting. A small organization can use cPanel hosting, while a larger business, public institution or technology company can move into VPS, colocation, networking, cybersecurity, cloud platforms and custom development within the same organization.

CABOLINKCabolink, also known as
Cabolink-Network, is a Cape Verdean web hosting, domain registration, corporate email, and digital-services provider based in Praia. The business operates under NIF 251221504 and has more than ten years of experience in technology services. Its earlier activity focused on web hosting and IT assistance for individuals and companies, followed by a rebranding process that began in
2023 and formally introduced the Cabolink-Network identity in December 2024.
Valdemar Lopes is closely associated with the company’s technical and business activity. Cabolink reports ten years in business and more than 750 completed projects, with its online activity traceable to at least 2020.
The principal product is
Linux Shared Hosting, offered through four cPanel-based packages.
Click Start includes
5 GB of storage, 10 email accounts, free HTTPS, cPanel, and Softaculous.
Click Soft increases capacity to
10 GB and 20 email accounts, while
Click Pro includes
15 GB and 30 email accounts. The largest package,
Click Advanced, provides
40 GB of storage and 50 email accounts.
These packages are suitable for company websites, personal projects, WordPress installations, and standard business email. Shared accounts may use up to
600,000 inodes and 35 simultaneous HTTP connections. Streaming platforms, large file-distribution services, online backup repositories, extensive media galleries, cryptocurrency mining, proxies, and other resource-intensive or high-risk activities are prohibited.
Softaculous makes it easier to install WordPress and other supported web applications, while free HTTPS is included throughout the current shared hosting range. Website migration assistance is available after the new account has been activated, with customers supplying the access credentials required to transfer data from their former provider.
A free hosting trial can be requested, although its duration and resource allocation vary. Cabolink also provides lower-cost hosting for students through individually arranged offers.
Corporate Email Hosting supports POP3, SMTP, and IMAP. Email accounts are subject to storage limits and anti-spam rules, including a standard limit of 500 recipients for mailing activity unless another arrangement is approved. Successful delivery also depends on external reputation systems, recipient servers, and spam filters.
Cabolink is an official partner for
.cv domain registration. Its domain services cover registration, transfer, renewal, DNS administration, domain locking, automatic renewal, email forwarding, and optional WHOIS privacy. Available extensions include
.cv, .com.cv, .net.cv, .org.cv, .com, .net, .org, .info, .online, .eu, and
.us.
The broader portfolio includes
digital consulting, domain and website setup assistance, intelligent-construction project development, and
OTT infrastructure for hospitality businesses. OTT projects may include equipment installed directly in the customer’s technical room.
The service agreement also contains provisions covering cloud VPS, conventional VPS, reseller hosting, managed environments, root access, and dedicated servers. These services are handled as customized arrangements rather than standardized products with public configurations and prices.
The website uses a modern responsive layout and supports
Portuguese and English, together with
CVE and USD currency selection. Some sections mix Portuguese and English, so the Portuguese version provides the most consistent experience.
