The five year contract, with a global blue-chip enterprise, is for 1,500m2 net datacentre space and services starting in H207 with an additional 1,300m2 in H208.
IXEurope's London4 IXDatacentre is near Slough and complements the Group's existing London facilities in the City, Park Royal and West Drayton. This new IXDatacentre will initially deliver 5,000m2 of net datacentre space and could be expanded later by a further 5,000m2 of high specification net space with 24 megawatts of provisioned power.
Russell Poole, General Manager of IXEurope UK said:
"This contract signing reflects the trust that blue-chip enterprises with demand for high specification datacentre space and quality professional services place in IXEurope. Demand for London4 remains strong and the build-out is on schedule to allow access to customers from the summer.”
