LONDON, November 9, 2020, /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

Built to support growing demand in the region, the 27MW hyperscale facility has

already achieved over 90% pre-letting

Colt Data Centre Services (DCS) [https://www.coltdatacentres.net/ ]  today

announces the launch of its Inzai 3 hyperscale data centre, its largest

facility in Japan. The 27MW facility has already achieved over 90% pre-letting

and comes at a time of increased demand in the Japanese market.  

The launch of Inzai 3 represents an expansion of Colt DCS' Inzai campus, which

already houses two other hyperscale facilities. Between the three data centres,

there is a total of 50MW of IT power available on the campus. In response to

customer demand for larger data halls, Inzai 3's data halls are 1,000sqm each,

optimising space efficiency and enabling higher density compute at an average

of 3.375kW per sqm.

Inzai 3 also employs the latest construction techniques to counteract the

effects of any seismic activity in the region. The hyperscale superstructure

sits on a system of seismic isolation mechanisms that will isolate the whole

building from any seismic shifts and allowing it to move as one, rather than to

sway. The result is a substantial reduction in the impact of any movement,

protecting the building, customer hardware and staff on-site.

The new facility has been built to satisfy the growing demand for cloud-based

solutions in the Japanese market. This is owing in part to the acceleration of

Japan's digital transformation, led by the country's Prime Minister, Yoshihide

Suga, and the Minister for Digital Transformation, Takuya Hirai. The nation is

committed to unlocking the benefits of digitisation, not only for the

government but also the private sector in an effort to transform the economy

and society as a whole.

"The demand we are seeing within the Japanese market is unlike ever before,"

said Hiroshige Sugihara, Head of APAC, Colt DCS. "Hyperscale, and the

scalability and agility it provides, will be essential to foster such widescale

growth and we are thrilled to be supporting businesses and Cloud Service

Providers in the region with the services they require."

Colt DCS possesses over 21 years of experience in the Japanese market. During

this time, the provider has gained significant knowledge and understanding of

the local market, language and culture. This heritage and experience in

managing mission-critical infrastructure will be essential as Colt DCS looks to

support more multinational businesses and Cloud Service Providers within the

Inzai 3 facility in the coming years. Customers will benefit from Colt DCS'

unique ability to provide highly-skilled and experienced multi-lingual staff

in-house to manage its facilities and provide support. As a carrier-neutral

provider, Colt DCS can also provide Inzai 3 customers with the power and

flexibility to choose any network carrier they want.

Quy Nguyen, VP Global Accounts & Solutions at Colt DCS  said, "While we are

quite proud of our latest hyperscale facility, we are even more proud that we

were able to deliver it in a responsible manner by ensuring the health and

safety of our staff and contractors involved in the construction. By completing

the site in a safe and timely manner, despite the pandemic disruptions of the

last nine months, we are delighted to not only have delivered on our promise to

clients, but to our employees and partners as well. We fully expect that demand

for our high-quality hyperscale facilities will continue to grow in the

Japanese market on the strength of our best-in-class operations and design and

delivery expertise."
