Down the corridors in the engines of digital India

In the far reaches of Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, an electricity substation – spread over 10,000 square metres and fenced off from wanderers – hums on. Its purpose: to provide a dedicated and unbroken stream of electricity to a 60-metre-high building. This is ND1, Yotta Infrastructure’s data centre in the National Capital Region, one of many complexes to come up around cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chen-nai, Hyderabad and, most recently, Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh.
