NTT DATA, Inc. (GDC - Mumbai 5) Data Center

The Mumbai 5 Data Center serves as a premier hub for global connectivity, offering businesses a robust networking ecosystem designed for rapid growth. By providing direct access to an extensive array of network providers, major internet exchange points, and sophisticated service delivery networks, the facility ensures low-latency performance and high availability. With two dedicated Internet Exchange Points on-site and a specialized Meet-Me-Room (MMR), the infrastructure is engineered to facilitate seamless cross-connects and high-speed data transfers for global enterprises.

Spanning a total building area of 27,870 sq.m., this purpose-built facility offers significant scale to accommodate diverse enterprise requirements. The data center features 6,700 sq.m. of fully built-out whitespace, distributed across an eight-floor layout specifically designed for industrial-grade performance. To support heavy hardware deployments, the facility utilizes raised flooring with a maximum floor load capacity of 1,500 kg/sq.m., ensuring a stable and professional environment for high-density server storage.

The facility is equipped with a critical IT load of 12.5 MW, capable of supporting modern, power-hungry hardware with a maximum power density of 6 kW per rack. To guarantee continuous operation, the electrical architecture features redundant transformer-based Power Distribution Units (PDUs) strategically aligned on both sides of every rack row. This design ensures that mission-critical systems remain online even during maintenance or local grid fluctuations, providing the necessary energy stability for 24/7 operations.

Maintaining peak hardware performance requires precision, which is why Mumbai 5 utilizes an advanced air-cooling system with N+2 Precision AC management. This setup provides granular control over both temperature and humidity, utilizing a bottom-up air supply method to efficiently dissipate heat from high-density racks. This rigorous environmental management prevents hardware degradation and ensures that the sensitive electronic components of the server environment operate within optimal thermal ranges.

Recognized for boasting the highest level of disaster protection and recovery in India, the facility is prepared for any external contingency. The standby power system includes four massive diesel tanks totaling 200,000 liters, capable of sustaining the entire data center at full load for 48 hours without external power. Managed by a world-class team of professionals, these fail-safes provide a safety net that protects against prolonged outages and ensures business continuity regardless of environmental or regional challenges.

Security is integrated into the physical architecture of the facility, starting with a fenced perimeter and vehicle scanners at the boom barrier. Access is strictly regulated through a Mantrap entry system, requiring multi-factor authentication including Biometric and Card Access controls. The entire premises are under constant CCTV surveillance and are patrolled by onsite security staff 24/7, meeting the rigorous standards of ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications for information security and quality management.

Catering to various business sizes, the center offers flexible tenancy and hardware housing options ranging from full cabinets and partial cabinets to shared rackspace. Beyond the hardware environment, clients have access to professional amenities including conference rooms, loading bays, and onsite parking. Furthermore, the facility is supported by a 24/7 onsite technical team providing Remote Hands services, allowing clients to manage their infrastructure efficiently without needing to be physically present.
