ETIX BKK#1 data centre has a capacity of SMW, of which 3MW is fully used, while ETIX BKK#2 data centre has a capacity of 23MW.

“The development of ETIX BKK#1 allowed us to multiply our capacity by six times in just three years. We now have 2MW available at TIX BKK#1. The launch of ETIX BKK#2 with an additional 23MW is coming at the right time,’ said Pierre Patris, the company’s chief executive for Asia.

The company said it delivered the core and shell of ETIX BKK#2, located adjacent to ETIX BKK#1.

With a building totalling 16,000 square metres, ETIX BKK#2’s location allows customers to benefit from the same telecom ecosystem and grow as if it was the same building as the first data centre, said Mr Patris.
