Aruba has announced that its hyper cloud IT4 data centre in Rome is set for completion in the first quarter of 2023.

The facility, currently under construction, sits on a 74,000 msq site situated in central Italy within the Tecnopolo Tiburtino area. At full capacity, the campus will comprise five independent data centres each providing 6MW capacity, totalling 30MW of IT power and a redundancy level of 2N or higher.

According to Aruba, the campus will use energy from 100% renewable sources, certified at the European level through Guarantee of Origin (GO Certification) and self-produced on site via photovoltaic systems and the use of efficiency-optimised cooling.

“Tapping into the latest technologies to improve sustainability is a priority for the entire data centre industry. The work on our new hub in Rome is helping guide this priority, further consolidating us as one of the top European providers of enterprise-grade IT services as well as an operator of the most modern and environmentally friendly data centre network in Italy” said Alessandro Bruschini, Head of Infrastructure at Aruba.

“The Hyper Cloud Data Center will work in close synergy with the entire Aruba data centre network and help expand our presence and enhance our connectivity in key European regions.”
