European fiber firm euNetworks is exiting its Amsterdam data center in the Netherlands.

Colocation customers have apparently been asked to vacate the data center by next year. According to Data Center Map, it is located on Paul Van Vlissingenstraat in the Dutch capital.

The news was revealed by Dirk Pol, of Dutch connectivity firm i4 Networks, in a post on LinkedIn. EuNetworks has since confirmed the news to DCD.

“euNetworks will be shutting down its data center in Amsterdam! Customers have been asked to relocate to another data center before July 2026,” Pol wrote. “So expect a rush at the door!”

Update: Andrew Holder, euNetworks Chief Operations Officer, told DCD: "The euNetworks lease at the Paul van Vlissingenstraat (PVV) data center facility is approaching the end of its term. After extensive discussions, the landlord has confirmed plans to redevelop the site. As a result, euNetworks and our customers currently located there will be relocating in 2026."

"We are working in close partnership with all affected customers, who are our primary focus, to ensure a smooth and well-supported transition. Planning is underway, with comprehensive assistance, communication, and implementation efforts in progress to minimise disruption and maintain continuity of service." 

For now, the company operates the AMS00001 data center in Amsterdam at 16 Paul van Vlissingenstraat.

The three-story facility is owned by CapitaLand via its CapitaLand Ascendas REIT unit, which acquired the data center in 2021. The site was last upgraded in 2024, taking it to 450 racks across 16,500 sq ft (1,532 sqm) and upping the site’s IT capacity from 1.4MW to 2.3MW.

EuNetworks builds and invests in city and long-haul fiber networks to connect key European data centers and data hubs.

The bandwidth infrastructure company owns and operates fiber networks in 18 cities, while its long-haul network spans 45,000 route kilometers across 17 countries. At present, euNetworks directly connects more than 542 data centers.

It has also previously offered colocation data center services from Amsterdam, Ireland, and several locations in Germany, targeting ISPs and other telco-related companies. It still shows colo options in the Netherlands and Germany on its website.

The company has had a presence in Amsterdam since 2006, when it opened a 12MW data center. It appointed Marisa Trisolino as its new CEO in April.

The Amsterdam facility was previously the home of AMS01, the first SoftLayer European data center. Acquired by IBM in 2013, the company exited its presence from the facility in 2023 after almost 12 years.
