Yotta to begin construction of two more data centres in Greater Noida

Yotta Infrastructure, a subsidiary of Hiranandani Group, has said it will commence construction of its two more data centres in the Greater Noida region from January 2022.

The two buildings will have a capacity of 30-megawatt load each and will begin operations by January 2024, the company said in a statement on Monday.

Yotta’s first building in the Greater Noida’s Data Centre park is still under construction since January 2021 and is expected to go live for customer operations by July 2022. Once completed, it will have a capacity of 30MW IT load.

Sunil Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO of Yotta Infrastructure, said, “Foreseeing increased demand from the region due to digital acceleration, we’ve decided to commence construction of two new data centre buildings of 30MW IT load each from January 2022, much ahead of our earlier schedule.”

“With the presence of multiple telco operators, redundant fiber paths and various Internet exchanges, availability of Build-to-Suit, Bulk and Retail Colocation and various Cloud and Managed Services, this data centre park is attracting customers from across the world,” added Gupta.    

The Uttar Pradesh government in October 2020 gave nod to Yotta to set up a 20-acre hyperscale data centre park in Greater Noida. The park will consist of six interconnected data centre buildings offering a capacity of 30,000 racks, powered by a total of 250 MW.

The cost of the park is estimated to be about Rs 7,000 crore.
