Digital Realty Launches Second Data Center In Frankfurt
The move is designed to expand the company’s presence in the connectivity capital of Germany.
Digital Realty has announced the grand opening of its second data center in Frankfurt. This nine megawatt (MW) facility is the first of three buildings to be built on the new Digital Realty campus in Sossenheim, Germany, an established data center hub approximately three miles west of downtown Frankfurt. The Wilhelm-Fay-Strasse site in Sossenheim is expected to support the development of up to 27 MW of data center capacity, and will be connected via dark fiber to Digital Realty's existing facility on Lyoner Strasse, establishing a carrier-neutral and fiber-rich connectivity hub with access to major carriers, Internet service and exchange providers, as well as leading global cloud service providers.
