Mumbai – April 16th 2014 – Tata Communications, a leading provider of A New World of Communications™, further expands its global data centre footprint by entering strategic partnerships with NEXTDC in Australia, Interxion in Germany and Austria, as well as Pacific Link Telecom (PLT) in Malaysia. These partnerships will enable Tata Communications to extend its current data centre offerings in these regions and to deliver a uniform customer experience across geographies.

Tata Communications’ data centres are fully integrated into the company’s global IP network, offering maximum traffic capacity into and out of its facilities.

Srinivasan CR, Vice President, Data Centre Services, Tata Communications says, “As technologies evolve and newer trends like BYOD and video streaming become a central part of enterprise business needs, it is important to have these applications hosted on a global data centre network to provide a uniform experience to the end-user. Additionally, hosting applications in interconnected data centre enables the user to access the data from anywhere, anytime and on any device. Expanding our data centre footprint forms part of our strategy to enable businesses with the most robust backbone for their organisations’ digital infrastructure.”
