Colt Reveals Plans For Expansion Into Europe

A data firm has set up plans to expand its data centre operations into Europe

, according to a number of reports.

Colt, an IT managed services, networking and communication solutions provider, is set to permit local access to its services, those of which include its private cloud, with a brand new data building in the Netherlands, stated by DatacenterDynamics.

The new facility, Colts first in the country, will be located on a 39,000 square meter site and will be fully operational in 2013.

Furthermore, the company stated that the data will be delivered through 2,000 square meter allotments, with 20 halls intended so far.

The modules, which will come fully installed with power and cooling modules, are set to be manufactured and tested in the UK before being sent out to the Netherlands site.

Colt stated that its modular data centres can be produced within four months.

The company was quoted on its website as saying:We're not talking about 'container' based data centres either: we mean large-scale, traditional data centres built in a radical new way, using standardised manufacturing techniques and components on a production line."

Colt vice president Bernard Geoghegan stated that the Netherlands was the ideal location for the company as it is based in between four major European cities.

"The site offers an ideal location for our first modular data centre deployment in the Netherlands," he was quoted as saying.

"The expansion capability of the site together with our unique modular approach means our customers will be able to scale and add additional capacity as demand requires."

Colts Netherlands site when constructed will be its 20th in Europe, where it already has a presence in 39 major cities.

The firm recently revealed its financial figures for the first quarter up until the 31st of March, posting total group revenue of 397.3 million euros, which illustrates a 5.2% increase in growth on last years figures.

Furthermore, the firm stated that the growth was driven by renewed interest in its voice products, where demand had been declining.

The Sunday Times wrote an article stating that Colt is to host its first investor day in nine years next week.
