Digital Connexion Announces its First NVIDIA DGX-Ready Data Center in Chennai

Digital Connexion, a full spectrum provider of highly-connected and scalable data center, colocation and interconnection solutions, today announced that its MAA10 facility in Ambattur, Chennai has been certified as part of the NVIDIA DGX-Ready Data Center program. This certification reflects the facility’s advanced capabilities to support accelerated computing workloads required for AI training and GPU-intensive computing.

The MAA10 data center is purpose-built to offer a highly resilient, GPU-optimized environment capable of supporting the most compute-intensive AI training and inference workloads. In line with global operational standards, MAA10 is compliant with ASHRAE W2 thermal guidelines, which ensures stable and efficient cooling in environments with elevated heat loads. The facility supports both air and liquid cooling configurations, enabling flexible deployment of diverse infrastructure from conventional GPU servers to next-generation, high-density systems requiring advanced thermal management. Designed for high-density workloads, the MAA10 data center meets the rigorous power and cooling demands of today’s most advanced AI infrastructure solutions.

It also features a unique N+2C power architecture, offering an added layer of redundancy that enhances uptime and operational reliability, which are key considerations for organizations deploying AI infrastructure at scale.

“The ability to process and manage data at scale is foundational to successful AI deployments. As AI adoption accelerates across India’s key industries, so does the need for infrastructure that can overcome Data Gravity barriers and support increasingly intensive AI workloads. Our certification as part of the NVIDIA DGX-Ready Data Center program strengthens MAA10’s position as a purpose-built, high-performance environment engineered to aggregate, process, and manage large volumes of AI data, empowering enterprises to innovate at scale,” said C R Srinivasan, Chief Executive Officer, Digital Connexion, on the occasion.

As Indian enterprises embed AI more deeply into their operations, the amount of data to be managed continues to grow. With its DGX-Ready data center certification, MAA10 further strengthens the reach of PlatformDIGITAL®, Digital Realty’s global data center platform, by providing an AI-optimized environment designed to support the aggregation and management of data-intensive workloads. Indian companies continue to adopt AI into their operations at a rapid pace, as indicated by the Data Gravity Index Report 2.0 that by the end of 2025, Delhi will have generated 12.3k exabytes of data, boosting the need for optimized data management. In today’s highly connected digital landscape, PlatformDIGITAL® will help enterprises more effectively address their Data Gravity challenges and support them in scaling their AI-driven innovation. 

MAA10 is TIA-942 Rated 3, confirming the facility’s capability to maintain critical operations even during maintenance activities. Further reinforcing its design principles, the data center holds an IGBC Platinum rating, reflecting its alignment with the highest benchmarks in sustainability, energy efficiency, and responsible resource management. With dedicated infrastructure engineered to handle dynamic GPU load patterns, MAA10 is positioned to support enterprises developing and deploying data-intensive AI applications in India.
