Equinix TY13x Tokyo xScale Data Center
Status: Fully Operational (Phase 1 Launched July 2023) | Location: 2-101-8 Izumino, Inzai City, Chiba Prefecture 270-1360, Greater Tokyo, Japan
Project Overview
The Equinix TY13x Tokyo xScale Data Center is a hyperscale digital infrastructure development located at 2-101-8 Izumino in Inzai City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan, within the Greater Tokyo metropolitan area. Developed through Equinix, Inc.’s joint venture with Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC, the facility represents the second purpose-built xScale development in Tokyo. Positioned immediately adjacent to the TY12x campus, TY13x expands Equinix’s dedicated hyperscale infrastructure footprint in the Inzai data center hub, an established location for large-scale digital infrastructure serving Japan’s capital region. The project is intended to address demand from major cloud providers and technology companies requiring substantial, scalable computing capacity.
The xScale model is designed to accommodate the infrastructure requirements of hyperscale customers, including large deployments of servers, storage systems, and networking equipment. This dedicated capacity complements Equinix’s retail colocation and interconnection services, providing a route for large cloud platforms to deploy infrastructure alongside a wider ecosystem of enterprise networks and digital service providers. Inzai’s concentration of data center developments makes campus proximity particularly relevant for organizations seeking access to regional connectivity and cloud infrastructure. The project’s specific IT capacity, investment amount, cabinet count, power supply, cooling architecture, renewable energy arrangements, and construction schedule have not been provided in the supplied information. These details will determine the facility’s ultimate scale and its suitability for different high-density computing workloads.
Inzai has become an important data center location within Greater Tokyo, serving the digital infrastructure needs of enterprises, cloud providers, and technology platforms operating in Japan. By expanding the xScale portfolio beside TY12x, TY13x can contribute to a broader concentration of hyperscale capacity and create opportunities for customers to integrate large computing deployments with Equinix’s wider network ecosystem. Its strategic role is linked to the continuing demand for cloud services, data processing, and AI-related computing across Japan. The facility’s eventual contribution will depend on its final technical configuration, power availability, and deployment timeline. Overall, Equinix TY13x represents a planned expansion of the company’s Tokyo hyperscale platform
