TelecityRedbus Launches Four European Facilities And Is To Develop Sweden's First Private IP Exchange TelecityRedbus has launched four new facilities in London, Amsterdam and Paris. At an investment level of €20 million, the developments will add over 34,000 square feet of advanced high-density and managed hosting space and are part of a plan to meet both current and future customer demand. Details of further investments will be announced later this year. The company believes that the growth of Web-based multimedia services and applications over the last few years, and the associated rise in demand from power and cooling capabilities required to support such applications, has vastly increased demand on data centre facilities. The new facilities and data centre expansion announced today include: * London – TelecityRedbus has completed the construction of 4,000 sq. feet of dedicated high-density data centre space in its Oliver’s Yard facility capable of supporting demands of up to 20 kW per rack, the highest hosting-related power and cooling capability currently available in the UK. * An additional 10,000 sq. feet is currently being added to the Sovereign House facility in Docklands, due for completion later this year. * Amsterdam - TelecityRedbus is developing 8,000 sq feet of dedicated high-density data centre space at its facility in Amsterdam Science Park. Due for completion this summer, the new high-power facility will be the first of its kind in the Netherlands, and will also be capable of supporting demands of up to 20 kW per rack. * Paris – TelecityRedbus has completed the construction of 12,000 sq feet of new managed data centre space, in its Aubervilliers facility offering a power capacity of up to 15 kW per rack. In a separate planned development, revealed exclusively to BroadGroup as part of our Data Centres Europe 2007 report, TelecityRedbus will launch Sweden’s first private IP Exchange to be based within its Stockholm Data Centre by the end of March. The new IP Exchange will be the first competitor to the Government-owned IP exchange, and will provide direct connectivity at a lower rate. The company believes that the new exchange will prove attractive to its existing ISP clients who currently have to rent dark fibre or lease capacity from TelecityRedbus’ facility to the existing IP exchange – with higher costs and lower potential latency.
