CtrlS EMERGING WORLD'S LARGEST RATED 4 HYPERSCALE DATA CENTER
Siliconindia - India Edition|May 2020
The Indian data center industry is witnessing rapid growth driven by rapid adoption of social media, e-commerce, digital transactions, social media, IoT, OTT and public cloud services.
CtrlS EMERGING WORLD'S LARGEST RATED 4 HYPERSCALE DATA CENTER

According to various industry commentators and marketers, the data center industry seems to be on a stream to exceed the industry forecast of USD 4 Billion for 2020. More so, India is dominated by the colocation data center segment, which is the fastest area of growth for the data center industry. The data center ‘Hotspots’ in the country include Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Chennai. While global hyperscalers like Google, AWS, Microsoft and Oracle try and up their game to stay ahead of the curve, India has its own game-changer in the data center industry- CtrlS Datacenters – pegged as Asia’s largest Rated 4 Hyperscale data center. The company is speculated to be emerging as World’s largest Rated 4 Hyperscale data center player.

CtrlS enjoys a healthy market share of one million square feet of hyper-scale data center facilities. CtrlS had become synonymous to robust, scalable data center infrastructure in India way back in 2006, when the firm built India’s first Rated 4 data center in Hyderabad. At that point in time, one would not fathom as to why the country required a Rated 4/Tier 4 data center.

However, with businesses racing towards a digital culture, catalyzed by explosion of data, the government’s mandate to localize the data, billions of connected devices, and large-scale cloud adoption by enterprises, a new breed of data centres was born: Hyperscale data centres. India, though already on the outset with respect to data center technologies, was ready to embrace the tier 4 version of data centers. Question was: Was it feasible to design and build such a system?

Well, CtrlS thought it was and proved it. In a short span, the company’s vision and forethought was vindicated as major banks, telecom operators, ecommerce players preferred CtrlS as their preferred partner for colocation services.
