Munich 2, based in the Unterschlei?heim district of Munich, is the latest part of
e-shelter’s ongoing expansion plans. The opening follows the mid-April launch of the highly-anticipated e-shelter innovation lab in Frankfurt.
Christoph B?ck, mayor of Unterschlei?heim: “The city of Unterschlei?heim is an innovative business location. e-shelter, with its infrastructure, is another strong partner for us in an area with considerable future relevance - digital transformation. I am particularly happy that the city of Unterschlei?heim meets the high security requirements and offers e-shelter the needed infrastructure to offer their customers a secure way to outsource their IT and network systems. I am convinced that many of our companies and start-ups in our digital start-up center ACU Accelerator Community Unterschlei?heim will benefit from the new data center.”
As an NTT Communications company, e-shelter customers are part of an expansive global data center network, which features over 140 data centers across EMEA, USA and Asia. Further locations across EMEA are to be announced in 2017.
