3data 2MW Capacity Colocation Data Center Facility In Moscow

Status: Operational   |   Location: ul. Butlerova, 17B, Moscow, 117342, Russia

Project Overview

3data B17 Data Center (Butlerova) is a Tier III-compliant urban-edge colocation facility located at ul. Butlerova, 17B in Moscow’s South-Western Administrative District, Russia, designed to provide enterprises, telecommunications operators, cloud platforms, and digital service providers with resilient computing and connectivity capacity close to one of the city’s major telecommunications corridors. The facility is positioned approximately 800 meters from MMTS-9/M9, a major internet traffic exchange location in Moscow, giving customers access to an established network ecosystem and supporting low-latency connections for data-intensive applications. Developed under 3data’s “Digital Yard” proximity model, B17 forms part of the operator’s distributed approach to placing data center capacity close to metropolitan users and network infrastructure rather than concentrating workloads exclusively in large centralized campuses. The facility provides high-availability rack hosting designed for enterprise and telecommunications workloads, with dual N+1 UPS power loops providing redundant backup capacity for critical electrical systems. This electrical architecture is complemented by Stulz precision cooling equipment, which helps maintain controlled environmental conditions for servers and networking equipment, including higher-density deployments. B17 also incorporates biometric access controls and other physical security measures intended to protect customer equipment and restrict access to authorized personnel. The data center is directly integrated into 3data’s metropolitan fiber network ring, allowing customers to connect with other 3data facilities and network locations across the Moscow region. This connectivity can support enterprise wide-area networks, cloud access, telecommunications transport, content delivery, and edge computing applications requiring consistent metropolitan network performance. Its proximity to MMTS-9/M9 further strengthens its relevance as an interconnection-oriented facility, providing an alternative location for organizations seeking to diversify infrastructure or expand capacity near Moscow’s established network hubs. By combining urban proximity, redundant power, precision cooling, physical security, and metropolitan fiber connectivity, 3data B17 serves as a distributed edge infrastructure node within Moscow’s evolving commercial data center ecosystem.
