By mid-year, through a press release, Ascenty had reported that the company will add 22 data centers, in three countries, with the construction of these two locations , increasing the area of ​​attention to the demands of national and multinational clients.

The two new Queretaro data centers are expected to start operations in 2021 .

" Mexico is a region that shows great expansion for Ascenty , and our strategy is always to evaluate the possibilities for the construction of new data centers when the demand justifies the investment," said Chris Torto, CEO of Ascenty , through the aforementioned newsletter. 

The Brazilian company  has an interconnection ecosystem that includes 4,500 kilometers of its own fiber optic network, connecting the data centers in operation , the main cloud providers in the world and the cable landing stations in Brazil . 

"The company is positioned as a neutral operator to allow connections through any operator or its own network," Ascenty said in his letter.
