Japanese IT services provider NTT has announced the launch of its new data centre campus in India.
Spanning six acres in Noida's data centre corridor within the Delhi National Capital Region (NCR), one of India’s largest and fastest-growing economic centres, the campus will support a planned capacity of 52.8 MW critical IT load in two data centres.
NTT said the facility is carrier-neutral, interconnected with its other data centre locations for minimal latency and offers seamless access to top-tier public cloud providers.
Its advanced features include "high" levels of automation that monitor and optimise facility performance and resources.
NTT Global Data Centres & Submarine Cable's CEO Doug Adams said, "India is a priority region in our global strategic roadmap of consistent capacity expansion in existing and new data centre markets.”
The first data centre will support 22.4 MW IT load at 28,000 square metres space, he added.
The company said this is also the first data centre campus in India to incorporate seismic dampers, ensuring uninterrupted operations even during significant seismic events.
With this launch, NTT has expanded its India footprint to more than 268 MW with 18 data centres across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Chennai, and Bengaluru.
NTT launched a hyperscale data centre campus in Chennai earlier in June 2023, along with the arrival of Myanmar-Malaysia-Singapore-India Transit (MIST) subsea cable system in the city.
It also plans to open data centre campuses in tier-II cities in India like Pune, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Nagpur, Bhopal, and Chandigarh.
