Scaling Infrastructure for India’s Digital Future: The Role of AI in Optimizing Operations
Nxtra by Airtel is addressing these challenges head-on.
With a bold expansion plan and cutting-edge AI integration, Nxtra is set to transform India’s data centre landscape.
Here are five key insights into their latest initiatives:
#Hyderabad’s Largest Data Centre
Nxtra is building its largest data centre in Hyderabad, spread across 40 acres.
This facility will deliver 200 MW of capacity, supporting Nxtra’s goal of doubling its nationwide capacity to over 400 MW within two years. Operations are expected to begin in two years, with full capacity reached in five.
$600 Million Investment
Backed by a $600 million investment, this expansion underscores Nxtra’s commitment to scaling its infrastructure to meet the rising demand for digital services across India.
Expansive Infrastructure and Customer Base
Nxtra already operates 12 large data centres and 120 Edge facilities, with a total power capacity of 200 MW. Serving over 500 customers, the company is a major player in India’s digital ecosystem.
AI-Driven Operational Excellence
Nxtra expects to be the first data center provider in India to implement AI for operational improvements. Using Ecolibrium’s SmartSense platform, AI was first deployed at its #Chennai facility and will soon expand to all core data centers.
Measurable Benefits of AI Integration
Nxtra’s AI initiatives aim for a 10% increase in asset life and a 10% reduction in non-IT power consumption. Additionally, the company expects a 15% boost in equipment performance through Fault Detection and Diagnostics (FDD) and preventative maintenance, along with a 25% improvement in productivity across operations.
With its combination of infrastructure expansion and AI integration, Nxtra is not just scaling capacity.
It’s setting a new standard for efficiency and innovation in India’s data center industry.
