Sify Infinit Spaces Ltd., a prominent Indian data center provider, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Nasdaq listed Sify Technologies Ltd., has launched an 50MW AI-powered Edge Data Center and Open Cable Landing Station (CLS) in Vishakhapatnam. The facility will be built at an investment of Rs 1,500 crores that will span two phases, on 3.6 acres of land allocated by the Andhra Pradesh State Government.
In a press release, Sify revealed that this Edge Data Center will be interconnected via the OPGW substation and will be connected by at least two fiber networks. The new CLS facility aims to offer seamless undersea cable connectivity and scalable AI compute capacity at the edge. It further aims to bring low-latency data processing closer to users in India and across the region, and serve as a strategic landing point for submarine cables connecting India with Southeast Asia—including Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, and Thailand.
Foundation stone for the project was laid by Nara Lokesh (Minister for IT, Electronics and Communications, Real Time Governance and Human Resources Development, Government of Andhra Pradesh). He said, “Visakhapatnam is fast emerging as India’s global digital gateway on the eastern seaboard. Sify’s world-class infrastructure will not only strengthen our state’s position in the global technology map but also catalyze new opportunities in innovation, employment, and investment. This is just the first step with approvals for a mega data center already in place.”
Raju Vegesna, Chairman, Sify, said, “We are proud to enable Visakhapatnam’s transformation into a key hub for global connectivity and digital infrastructure. This initiative is just the beginning of our long-term commitment to strengthening India’s digital economy and advancing AI-led innovation at scale.”
The facility will engage a little more than 1000 people during the construction and operational phases with resources drawn from a mix of technical and locally sources trained resources. Sify Infinit Spaces is Sify Technologies’ subsidiary specifically catering to the colocation demands of Hyperscalers, Enterprises and neo-Cloud prospects. Currently, the portfolio hosts 14 Data Centers across 6 cities as on June 2025.
