New Zealand ICT firm Datacom has acquired T4’s data center in Auckland, with terms undisclosed.The facility, located at 42 Business Parade South in Highbrook Business Park, East Tāmaki, was built around 2010 by IBM prior to Kyndryl’s spin-out. It spans approximately 5,200 sqm (56,000 sq ft) and offers 8MW of capacity.
“Today, sovereign infrastructure is a critical priority for organizations that need certainty over where their data resides, how it is governed, and how reliably it can be accessed,” said Datacom CEO Greg Davidson. “With our four existing New Zealand data centers, this new acquisition and the planned investment in the site, Datacom has committed more than NZ$200m (US$115.36m) to building out our data center capability in New Zealand. With greenfield data center investment opportunities being a focus, this investment level is expected to increase.”T4 chief executive, Dean Addie, said the deal reflects T4’s long-term strategy to focus investment on regional data center infrastructure across New Zealand.
“This transition allows us to accelerate our regional expansion while ensuring customers in major centers continue to be supported by a trusted local New Zealand operator,” he said. “With T4 concentrating on regional infrastructure and Datacom continuing to expand its Auckland footprint, we see this as a positive step in strengthening New Zealand’s sovereign data center capability and supporting customers, government, and communities across the country.”
