KDDI Corporation, together with Telehouse, has announced the latest expansion of its global footprint in North America by reaching an agreement with Allied Properties REIT to acquire three data centres and its accompanying assets in Toronto, Canada. This investment of CAD 1.35bn comes as a result of increased demand in the market for reliable interconnectivity services.
Starting with the first Telehouse data centre in New York in 1989, KDDI has been continuously expanding its presence in new markets for over 30 years, with this recent acquisition bringing the total portfolio of data centres to 12 countries. The new carrier-neutral data centres are located in the city centre of Toronto, and when fully operational, will provide over 30MW of IT load.
