Macquarie Data Centers Announced the Topping out of Its Hyperscale Data Centre

Macquarie Data Centers completed the structural build during the global COVID-19 pandemic. Construction together with data centers has been recognized as essential under the Australian COVID-19 regime. The classification enabled Macquarie Data Centers to continue building across 2020, and the company saw both its IC3 and IC5 data center in Canberra topping out within weeks of one another. Topping out IC3E, in spite of the many challenges we’ve experienced in 2020, furthers Sydney’s position as a regional data center hub and Macquarie Data Centers’ key role within it.

The company added that the facility is designed to meet both the needs of global companies and is positioned to support Australian businesses. This includes the Federal Government, with 42% of federal agencies leveraging its cybersecurity, secure internet gateway (SIG) and cloud services. While some global companies were required to halt construction on their new data centers because of COVID-19 regulations, we’re pleased to have been allowed to continue building across this year – and to have done so safely and efficiently, with limited impact from COVID. Investment in Australia’s data centre ecosystem serves to create valuable jobs and build sovereign and secure capabilities – all of which is critical to helping grow Australia’s economy as we emerge from the pandemic.
