NTT Data has launched a new data center in Kyoto, Japan.

The company this week announced the official opening of its Keihanna OSK11 Data Center in Kyoto.

The air-cooled facility, NTT’s 14th in Japan and operated by NTT Global Data Centers, offers 30MW of IT capacity across some 10,900 sqm (117,325 sq ft).

“OSK11 represents a significant milestone in our continued investment in Japan and our commitment to enabling the next generation of digital innovation,” said Doug Adams, CEO of NTT Global Data Centers. “As demand for AI-ready infrastructure accelerates, the Kansai region is emerging as a critical hub for data-driven growth, and OSK11 positions our customers to scale with confidence.”

NTT Global Data Centers currently offers more than 2GW of capacity across some 160 data centers in 20 markets, including the US, the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, Spain, France, Austria, Switzerland, South Africa, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, and India.

NTT first announced plans for the four-story OSK11, located in Seika Town in Soraku District, Kyoto Prefecture, in 2022.

NTT GDC has three sites in development across Japan, though the wider NTT company operates numerous other facilities across the country.

NTT GDC is also developing the 36MW Osaka OSK12, set to comprise two 18MW buildings on a site in Ibaraki City, Osaka Prefecture. Ground was broken on the first building last year.

Ground was broken on a 24MW building in Tokyo in April 2025.

2025 saw NTT announce it had acquired land in both Tochigi and Osaka for new data center development.
