center3, the data center arm of the stc Group, completed a 9.6MW expansion of its hyperscaler-grade data center Khurais in Riyadh. The state-of-the-art facility is built to meet global hyperscalers requirements.
This expansion follows center3’s plan to build new data centers across Jeddah, Riyadh, Dammam, and other strategic locations in the Kingdom to address its customers’ requirements for high availability, disaster recovery, and scalability. The new facilities will feature operational standards that support service-level agreements and key performance indicators aligned with best-in-class international standards.
center3 aims to reach over 300MW of managed capacity in the next few years, not just within Saudi Arabia but beyond as well.
Eng. Fahad AlHajeri, CEO of Center3, commented: “We are proud to announce the expansion of our Khurais data center in Riyadh. We are committed to investing in the latest technologies and providing exceptional services to our customers while meeting growing demand. Through this milestone, we also contribute to the regional data center industry’s development, which is crucial for the Kingdom and the wider region’s digital transformation as it enables the localization of digital applications.”
