NTT DATA Bengaluru 3 Data Center (BLR3)
Status: Active / Fully Operational & TIA-942 Upgrade Phase (Tracking June 2026) | Location: Konadasapura, Khajisonnenahalli, Karnataka 560115
Project Overview
The NTT DATA Bengaluru 3 Data Center, widely tracked as the BLR3 Facility (and historically rooted in the Netmagic Bangalore DC03 development footprint), is a highly stable, core enterprise and cloud infrastructure asset operating in the heart of Bengaluru's East Taluka/Whitefield technology market. Positioned strategically to anchor high-availability production workloads, the facility serves as a vital low-latency connectivity and compute hub supporting Tier-1 banking platforms, global IT service providers, and sovereign hybrid cloud architectures.While newer mega-campuses focus entirely on massive raw greenfield utility allotments, BLR3 maintains immense operational value through its recent infrastructure modernization cycles. Tracking dynamically through June 2026, the facility has secured formal ANSI/TIA-942-C Constructed Facility rating milestones for its specialized operational floors. Spanning roughly 62,430 square feet of dedicated raised floor space, the facility bypasses regional speed-to-market constraints by offering active, fully built-out server environments. It functions as a dense, high-availability platform tailored explicitly to house critical enterprise nodes while integrating smoothly with the region's expanding telecom loops.
