120 Million Dollar Data Centre Will Bring Jobs, Opportunity and Connectivity to Darwin and Australia

MELBOURNE, Australia - July 5, 2020 - PRLog -- IOT Data Centres Pty Ltd ("IOTDC"), announce the commencement of a $120m Data Centre project in the Northern Territory.  The IOTDC facility, slated for an early 2021 opening, positions the Northern Territory as a central data and communications hub, connecting, the East, West and North coasts of Australia into South East Asia.   As the first of a series of 10 other separately funded facilities around Australia, the Darwin centre means an immediate investment of $12m with the additional investment expected to integrate the Northern Territory into the rest of the IOT Data Centre pipeline.

IOTDC announces phase one of their Data Centre facility to be located in the Northern Territory.  This $120m investment will deliver a Tier 3* (Uptime Institute Certified) city integrated data facility into the closest major Australian city to South East Asia.

The state-of-the-art facility which will be delivered in fully operational stages, enables the Northern Territory to play a significant role in connecting with the rest of Australia by providing additional information gateways into the SE Asian region. Working together with Vertiv, TotalSecure, Wolfe Systems, TPG and Intersector Capital, the IOTDC facility has been slated for early 2021 with subsequent phases to soon follow.

Steve Shelley, vice president of integrated modular solutions at Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, believes, "Data centres are the core foundation infrastructure needed for economic growth. Ultimately, data is what runs the world and there is a natural acceleration in demand for data centre services, as people and businesses rely more on the digital ecosystem for activities including banking, shopping, education, remote work and entertainment.  We are always demanding more of the internet and more than ever, our daily lives depend on data and data centres. This will be a really important infrastructure piece for Darwin's recovery"

The new IOTDC data centre brings regional benefits like better connectivity to both East and West coasts of Australia, Smart City initiatives, and new customers from outside the Territory, enabling accelerated growth of new jobs and positive economic development.
