VITRO Inc., a subsidiary of ePLDT Inc., said Wednesday its 50-megawatt data center in Sta. Rosa, Laguna is ready to start operations following the successful completion of its structure.
“VITRO Sta. Rosa is a landmark achievement for the PLDT Group and the Philippines. A lot of hyperscalers have already expressed their interest in co-locating in our facility,” said Victor Genuino, president and chief executive of ePLDT and VITRO.
“Once it is complete, we will continue to build more data center facilities ahead of demand to anticipate the future requirements of our customers as they accelerate the adoption of cloud and AI technologies,” he said.
He said with its structural completion, VITRO Sta. Rosa is completing another cornerstone in its development as it energizes the facility soon to welcome telcos, enterprises and hyperscalers.
The company earlier said it is targeting to start operations this month.
VITRO Sta. Rosa will rise as the country’s largest data center campus by far ̶ a five-hectare property in the booming industrial city of Sta. Rosa.
It is designed to be energy efficient, utilizing the latest innovations in cooling and power redundancy, rated-3 certified and rated-4 ready, and with the highest level of network diversity and resilience with at least three fiber routes from PLDT and other telco providers.
VITRO Sta. Rosa will host the country’s richest internet ecosystem and premier internet exchanges, making it the most ideal location for availability zones and points-of-presence of hyperscalers, as well as for critical systems of enterprises and the public sector.
The activation of its data center in Sta. Rosa will increase its capacity to 99.5MW.
VITRO operates 10 facilities with a combined capacity of 50 megawatts.
