DITO Telecommunity Corporation (DITO) just broke ground for its first Data Center, "expected to generate thousands of jobs", at Udenna Land, Inc. (ULI)'s Clark Global City (CGC).
Designed after Google’s campus-style headquarters, the master-planned development in CGC is "a critical component to sustain DITO’s commercial operations center", according to DITO PMO Lead Benedicto Lacsamana.
As part of the DITO main campus headquarters, the Data Center will rise on the first hectare of the company's 8-hectare property.
It includes a fully equipped network operations center, a serve-call center, a regional center plus a Research and Development (R&D) hub.
Due to its strategic location and disaster resiliency, DITO envisions CGC to be key to its infrastructure rollout, hosting its central telecom infrastructure network.
ULI is positioning CGC as the central business district of North and Central Luzon, with its proximity to the Clark International Airport and other critical transportation hubs, provisions for structures that are disaster-ready, plus access to skilled local talent pool.
