CtrlS Datacenters, founder and CEO, Sridhar Pinnapureddy said that the company plans to set up a 150 megawatt hyper-scale datacenter in Hyderabad that will be spread across two million square feet, a 100 MW similar facility in Mumbai and a 70 MW set-up in Chennai - spread over around a million square feet each.
"The demand for data storage has boomed in the country and data localization is also creating huge demand for hyper-scale datacenter in India.

"With addition of around 4 million square feet, CtrlS will emerge as World's largest Tier-4 datacenter entity to cater to need of emerging technologies. World's 90 per cent data has been generated in last 1,000 days. This part Indian data localization policy will lead to large growth of data in India as most of the overseas companies operating in banking," Pinnapureddy said.
The company already has 1 million square feet datacenters, which includes two tier-4 facility in Mumbai, two tier-4 in Hyderabad, one tier-4 in Noida and a tier-3 datacenter in Chennai.
The largest Tier-4 player would have a footprint of approximately one million square feet.
