Of Yotta’s portfolio, two, located at Navi Mumbai and Great Noida, are part of hyperscale campuses.

State-of-the-Art Data Center Facility

Spread across an area of more than three acres, the 60,000 square feet facility will be developed with an overall capacity of up to 4 MW critical IT load and enable both enterprises and hyperscale customers to future-proof their expansion options in the region, the official release said.

“The proposed K1 facility will not just be a data center; we’re creating an ICT ecosystem that drives local and global growth. This initiative features a state-of-the-art data center, designed for global hyper-scalers and AI/ML development,” BLC said. “This partnership will also emphasize the much-needed local participation and control, thus addressing data sovereignty concerns.”

With an outlay of multi-million dollars, this facility, K1, built as per Tier 3 standards, is expected to be completed in the next 24 months.
