After the event, the Minister tweeted that it's India's first Rs 100 crore with TeleIndia and adds to more than 500 employees. To begin with, he mentioned, it will offer co-location, housing and cloud services. The demand for hyper-scale data centres has risen drastically in the last few years, primarily because more businesses moved their IT infrastructure to the cloud. The increased digitalization efforts of the Central and state governments are another driver towards datacentres going hyper-scale and becoming more popular.
The specialized data centres are different from the standard data centres are tougher to build, especially in those areas where real estate and power are expensive and scarce. ReportLinker predicted that the global hyper-scale data centre market is set to grow at the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 9 per cent from 2018 to 2024.
