CTRLS DETAILS PLANS FOR NEW DATA CENTRE BUILD

PRESS RELEASE: CtrlS Datacenters is setting up a data centre in Assam, as part of its aim to achieve capacity of 5 million square feet.

The company did not reveal its investment plans for setting up the proposed data centre in Assam.

The company’s new data centre in Guwahati — spread over three acres — will have a capacity to host over 1,000 racks initially. CtrlS aims to double the rack capacity at the Guwahati data centre in the next 12-18 months.

Assam’s IT Minister Keshab Mahanta has laid the foundation stone of the Rated-4 Data centre at Tech City Park in Guwahati.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Sridhar Pinnapureddy, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CtrlS Datacenters, were present at the event.

The new data centre would provide co-location services for cloud, e-commerce, digital payment, digital classroom and OTT platforms.

CtrlS Datacenters has an aggregate 1.2 million square feet of space in its data centres in Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru and Hyderabad.

“We are expanding our footprint to 5 million square feet by adding two million square feet each in Mumbai and Hyderabad and one million square feet in Chennai,” CtrlS Datacenters said in a news statement.

CtrlS Datacenters CEO Sridhar Pinnapureddy in March said the company would set up a 500-acre solar park to power its data centre facilities and eliminate carbon footprint. The company was planning to add five million square feet of datacentre space in the next few months.

Besides setting up a 1-million sq ft datacentre in Chennai, CtrlS Datacenters would establish 500 edge datacentres in tier-2 and tier-3 cities across the country in phases.
