European data centre operator DEAC is expanding its partners network by adding Data Center Logistics (DLC) data centres in Vilnius, Lithuania.
Besides this new location, DEAC has two owned 2.3MW and 0.4MW data centers in Riga and the third with 4MW and additional 400 racks under construction, as well as over the years developed partnerships with locations in Moscow, Frankfurt, Stockholm, Kiev and Amsterdam. Close geographical location of Riga and Vilnius allows a building together of the Baltic region level IT infrastructure for power and capacity demanding customers, it says.
"With direct and fast multi x10Gbit/s connections, it is possible to offer versatile IT solutions and reliable cloud or colocation infrastructure for backup and risk diversification in Europe and in Russia," comments Andris Gailitis, DEAC CEO. In 2020, Latvian DEAC and Lithuanian DLC became part of Quaero Capital.
Meanwhile, DEAC has also started to implement its plan on data centre "Riga" expansion and improvement of energy efficiency with planned investments this year for one mln. Euros. In January, DEAC added two Kohler-SDMO generators and expanded cooling equipment with Vertiv Liebert HPC Chiller and CRAH equipment to improve PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) performance and prepare data center for Europe's "climate-neutral" requirements by 2030.
Besides investments in "Riga" data centre infrastructure, several services upgrades are planned with self-service platforms for virtualization automation and standard dedicated servers' configurations for small business customers and partners' convenience.
