NTT Launches new Hyperscale Data Centre campus in Navi Mumbai

NTT Ltd. in India has announced the launch of its new hyperscale data centre campus in Navi Mumbai with the first data centre – NAV1A.

This takes NTT’s data centre footprint in the country to 12 facilities, with more than 2.5 million sq. ft. (232,258 m2) and 220 MW of facility power, further strengthening its position as the market leader in India in this segment. This development comes close on the heels of data centre launches in Indonesia and Vietnam. The Navi Mumbai launch comes in the backdrop of a new data centre going live in its Chandivali campus, which is India’s first operational hyperscale data centre campus.

Scaling DC infra

These ongoing efforts are a part of the planned USD 2 billion investment that NTT had earmarked in 2020 for scaling its infrastructure capacity to enable it to continue building its One NTT vision. Masaaki Moribayashi, President and Board Director for NTT Ltd. said:

 “India is one of the fastest-growing data centre markets in the world today, making it a prominent focus area for NTT Ltd.’s global business. In the wake of the pandemic, and the recent initiatives by the Government of India, especially policies regarding data localization, and digitization of services across different verticals, we’ve witnessed a sharp rise in demand for data centres, cloud, remote-working and cyber security products and services. NTT has invested USD 2 billion to ensure access to world-class, end-to-end infrastructure for India’s digital-first economy and this launch in Navi Mumbai is another step in that direction.”

The NAV1A data centre is spread across 400,000 -square-feet (37,161 m2) (G+8 structure with 1 basement floor) and will offer the capacity to host 5,000 racks and support over 30 MW of IT load. The NAV1 campus in Mahape, Navi Mumbai is planned with the capacity for up to 4 data centres, reaching up to 150 MW of facility load.

NTT is one of the world’s largest data centre operators, with over 1,300 MWs of data centre capacity today, including a large development pipeline of a 25 per cent increase in capacity across more than 20 countries and regions globally. Sharad Sanghi, Managing Director, NTT Ltd. in India, added:

“This along with our Chandivali campus gives clients the unique opportunity to plan their IT across multiple availability zones connected by our Data centre Interconnect (DCI) fabric within the Mumbai region. And with the Mumbai landing station for the MIST cable system, connecting Singapore, Myanmar and India, they will be able to leverage NTT’s infrastructure for global connectivity. Our projects are progressing at a fast pace and clients can also look forward to an ‘availability triangle’ in the Mumbai region with hyperscale campuses in Chandivali, Mahape and Airoli.”

 

NAV1A is one of the first data centres in India to have deployed alternative cooling solutions including Liquid Immersion Cooling and Direct Contact Liquid Cooling. These innovative solutions, deployed at scale have the potential to significantly improve a data centre’s PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness). NTT has also constantly focused on the sustainability of operations.

The company is leading the way toward the usage of clean energy in data centre operations and has built a solar power plant in Solapur, Maharashtra, wind and solar energy plant in Karnataka. The company has ambitious plans to steadily enhance its solar and wind power production, gradually moving towards carbon-neutrality in the future.
