Colt Data Centre Services (Colt DCS) has announced the launch of its new hyperscale data centre, Inzai 4, in Tokyo.
This expansion is the second site developed under the joint venture between Fidelity Investments and Mitsui & Co.
Colt DCS says the site reinforces the company’s commitment to meeting the growing demand for data centre capacity and public cloud services in Japan and the APAC region.
The first phase of the development is complete, with 4.8MW now operational. Once fully built, the site will deliver 20MW, increasing Colt DCS’ total capacity in Inzai to 70MW. Inzai 4 is fully pre-let, highlighting the strong demand for Colt DCS’ solutions.
Developed to Colt DCS’ Global Reference Design (GRD) guidelines, the site incorporates various low embodied carbon principles.
Colt DCS was the first provider to launch a hyperscale data centre in the Inzai area in 2011 and has continued to invest in the region, with plans already underway for its Inzai 5 facility.
The area’s stable bedrock, dense fibre connectivity, efficient rail links, proximity to Tokyo and supportive local government make it a prime location for data centre expansion.
Niclas Sanfridsson, CEO, Colt DCS, said: “The continued growth in digital services has created strong demand for hyperscale data centres in Japan. Inzai 4 is a testament to our commitment to meeting this demand and supporting the digital economy in the Asia-Pacific region.”
