), going live. BDx's NKG Data Center Campus is located in the heart of the

Yangtze River Delta, one of the nation's richest regions and its largest import

and export base. NKG1 is now serving customers after receiving its certificate

of completion from the Urban and Rural Construction Bureau of Jiangning

The NKG1 facility is the first data center in the city to earn the Uptime

) and offers 4MW of IT power for colocation. NKG1 is powered by two separate

10-kilovolt feeders from two substations that will provide the NKG campus 60MVA

of total power sanctioned from the grid.

 

During the height of the pandemic, BDx's design and construction team focused

on safety to ensure that the project was completed safely and without incident.

With safety at the forefront, BDx was able to add critical capacity to this

region, responding to the accelerated shift to digital environments that caused

a surge in demand for data center services. Research shows (

) that demand hasn't dropped as the economy reopens.

 

"We worked through the challenges of completing a major construction project

during the peak of the pandemic because customers were anticipating this launch

to support an unprecedented surge of growth and capacity requirements," says

Bill Gao, EVP & CEO for BDx Greater China. "The launch of NKG1 enables BDx to

have new world-class data center infrastructure in China. It also lays a solid

foundation for BDx to provide OTTs, financial services institutions, and

Fortune 500 MNC customers with high reliability, high redundancy and low

latency solutions."

 

Due to the overwhelming demand in the region, BDx plans to launch phase 2 of

the data center campus within the year. NKG2 is designed to be minimally manned

and almost lights-out — a reigning philosophy across BDx's data center cluster.

In addition, its highly automated features make for a more sustainable data

center environment.
