NTT has launched a new data center campus outside Delhi, India.
The company this week announced the launch of its new data center campus, Noida 2, and the opening of its first data center.
The first building offers 22.4MW across 300,000 sq ft (28,000 sqm). Spanning six acres, the campus will support a planned capacity of 52.8MW critical IT load in two data centers.
“India is a priority region in our global strategic roadmap of consistent capacity expansion in existing and new data center markets,” said Doug Adams, CEO and president, NTT Global Data Centers & Submarine Cables. “With this new site, we reaffirm our commitment to delivering reliable infrastructure that can support the demands of our clients’ digital transformation ambitions around the globe.”
NTT said it is the first data center campus in India to incorporate seismic dampers to protect operations during earthquakes.
NTT has 18 data centers across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Chennai, and Bengaluru offering a combined 3.1 million sq ft (290,000 sqm) and 265MW in India.
“The launch of our new campus in Noida is a significant milestone in our growth journey in India,” said Shekhar Sharma, CEO & MD, NTT GDC India & NTT Com India Network Services. “Clients will now be able to access our trusted data center services, from an interconnected campus in North India. As India’s digital economy accelerates towards the one trillion-dollar milestone, we will continue to provide the infrastructure for this growth.”
Noida 1 – also known as DEL 1 – offers 1.5MW. The company acquired six acres in Noida for a second campus back in 2021 – with reports at the time suggesting a 70MW site was planned.
The likes of Yotta, STT GDC, CapitaLand, AdaniConneX, and SiFy have or are developing sites in Noida.
