OSLO, Norway, June 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- DigiPlex,
the Nordic leader for scalable, secure and sustainable data
centers, has opened a third data center at its Fetsund campus in
Lillestrøm municipality in Norway.
The new data center has close to 900 sqm of white space and is
built to support 3 MW IT load. DigiPlex now operates eight data
centers across Norway,
Sweden and Denmark.
DigiPlex is expanding rapidly, and this is its third data center
opening to be announced in the last nine months. It follows the
opening of the second Fetsund facility in Lillestrøm in
September 2020 and the first data
center on DigiPlex' new campus site at Holtskogen in Indre Østfold
municipality, south east of Oslo
in October 2020.
The project was successfully delivered in under 12 months
despite the disruption caused by the second Covid-19 wave. This
latest facility is engineered for very high levels of service
availability and is already reserved for a global client. However,
with power, fibre and core infrastructure already embedded in the
campus environment, DigiPlex is now developing a new 6MW dual hall
data center on the campus to allow for additional growth at this
popular location.
"Speed to market is a critical factor for our hyperscale
clients. Our campus approach to data center design and construction
allows us to be very agile and respond to these requirements with
fast and flexible builds. Completing a single data center in under
a year is a huge achievement, announcing the openings of three in
the last nine months, whilst battling the disruptions of global
pandemic is extraordinary," says Wiljar Nesse, CEO of
DigiPlex.
"As the digitalization of economies and society continues to
accelerate, our ability to secure land and create facilities
complete with connectivity and power, ready to hand over to clients
in just a few months is a significant competitive advantage,"
Nesse continued.
The three centers at the Fetsund campus now comprise a total of
close to 6,000 sqm usable server space and support a 16 MW IT load.
The campus approach used by DigiPlex at Fetsund, combined with its
modular design principles, expands upon the robust physical
security infrastructure already in place, increasing the campus
capability for surveillance, monitoring and manned guarding
delivering state of the art, environmentally friendly data
centers for customers in short timeframes.
In common with other DigiPlex facilities the new data center has
inherent redundancy in the power and cooling systems and is
engineered to be maintained without services downtime. The
facility utilises DigiPlex's award-winning air-to-air cooling
system, a high-efficiency system is uniquely suited to the Nordic
climate, yielding efficiencies and cost savings up to 25% beyond
the industry average.
