VITRO Inc. tops off PH’s first hyperscale data center in Sta. Rosa
VITRO Inc., a subsidiary of ePLDT and the data center arm of PLDT Inc. (PLDT) recently held a topping-off ceremony to mark the structural completion of the 50-MW VITRO Sta. Rosa, the country’s first true and most advanced hyperscale data center.
The construction milestone also signifies the readiness of VITRO Sta. Rosa for power integration and energization. In attendance were key representatives from VITRO Inc., and its construction partners MDBI Construction Corporation (a joint venture of Makati Development Corporation and Bouygues Batiment International) and Mace.
VITRO Sta. Rosa will rise as the country’s largest data center campus by far ̶ a five-hectare property in the booming industrial city of Sta. Rosa in Laguna province. It is designed to be energy efficient, utilizing the latest innovations in cooling and power redundancy, Rated-3 certified and Rated-4 ready, and with the highest level of network diversity and resilience with at least three fiber routes from PLDT and other telco providers.
Additionally, VITRO Sta. Rosa will host the country’s richest internet ecosystem and premier internet exchanges, making it the most ideal location for Availability Zones and Points-of-Presence of hyperscalers, as well as for critical systems of enterprises and the public sector.
“VITRO Sta. Rosa is a landmark achievement for the PLDT Group and the Philippines. A lot of hyperscalers have already expressed their interest in colocating in our facility. Once it is complete, we will continue to build more data center facilities ahead of demand to anticipate the future requirements of our customers as they accelerate the adoption of cloud and AI technologies,” said Victor S. Genuino, President and CEO of ePLDT and VITRO Inc.
With its structural completion, VITRO Sta. Rosa is completing another cornerstone in its development as it energizes the facility soon to welcome telcos, enterprises, and hyperscalers.
