Scala Data centers, the leading Latin American platform of sustainable data centers in the hyperscale market, has announced the start-up of the 6MW IT SGRUTB05 data center, the second largest vertical data center in Latin America.
The building, located on the Tamboré Campus, in Barueri City (São Paulo state, Brazil), is another single-tenant facility – and only the third on this campus – dedicated to a single hyperscale customer, which also has a reserved capacity of 100MW to be distributed in other data centers at the complex.
Also located at the site, is Scala’s SGRUTB04, the largest vertical data center in the Latin American market.
Marcos Peigo, Scala’s CEO and Co-founder, said: “As the third operational single-tenant site at the Tamboré Campus, SGRUTB05 reinforces Scala’s successful strategy of not only enabling unprecedented volumes in the Latin American market, accommodating the growth of our customer’s IT infrastructure for decades to come, but also offering a secure, fast and flexible approach through multiple constructions.”
With a total built area of 6,700 sqm, SGRUTB05 is 35.5 meters high, has five floors, three of which are dedicated to data halls, which together have a high density of approximately 400 racks with almost 9MW of total power.
To create the site, Scala applied its own One Scala Template methodology, developed by its Center of Excellence in Engineering.
