    MANILA - Globe, Ayala Corp and Singapore-based ST Telemedia Global Data Centres are building
    what they say will be the largest data center in the Philippines.

    The groundbreaking ceremony was done Thursday in Fairview, Quezon City. The new data center
    will have 83,000 square meters of gross floor area and offers a development potential of 124
    megawatts of IT load capacity. The 124 megawatts is way above the current combined capacity in
    the Philippines of about 60 megawatts total.

    Jaime Augusto Zobel de Ayala, Chairman of Ayala Corporation, said he is happy with Globe's
    expansion of its telco business. 

    “Nothing can be done alone and it’s a great group of partners that we have on something massively
    important,” said Zobel de Ayala.

    Bruno Lopez, President and CEO of STT GDC said the initial investment would be around $1
    million, and it is expected to beef up the economy and create jobs.

    “The flow over effect of that investment, as mentioned there was this Oxford Economics study every
    20 megawatts that is built delivers close to $5 billion GDP boost, as well as 28,000- 30,000 jobs,”
    said Lopez.

    Many companies like Globe’s rival Smart and Converge are also building data centers in the country.
    Data centers are facilities that house or store data of various websites, social media sites, mobile
    applications and more.

    here, we will be potentially hosting the cloud services of the rest of ASEAN,” said Uy.
