French data center operator DTiX is building a new data center in Chalon-sur-Saône, in eastern France.

The company is developing a second facility, to be located in the Saône-et-Loire department in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.

The facility will offer space for 100 racks across two data rooms, totaling around 650 sqm (7,000 sq ft). It is scheduled to open by the end of June 2023.

According to La Tribune and Traces Ecreites News, the company broke ground in December and will be investing €3.5-4 million in the project, which will be built to Tier III standards.

DTiX currently operates one facility in the Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur area of Dijon that opened in September 2020. The facility has capacity for 120 computer racks across three data rooms, totaling 450 sqm (4,850 sq ft).

The Dijon facility is reportedly around 35 percent occupied, but the company wants to offer greater redundancy options.
